A striking and very high quality French 19th century Renaissance st. Rouge Griotte marble, patinated bronze, and ormolu garniture clock set. The clock at the center is raised by handsome lions paw feet amidst fine scrolled movements. The rectangular Rouge Griotte marble base displays a finely chased wrap around ormolu band with intricately detailed scrolled foliate designs in a rich satin and burnished finish. At the center is the striking ormolu clock face with pierced hands, Roman numerals, and a lovely beaded border with a Pharaoh's head to the right. A finely detailed beautiful maiden is seated above draped in a wonderfully executed flowing period garment with a striking wreath in her hair and holding an ormolu plaque. At each side are impressive urns each raised by square Rouge Griotte bases decorated with finely detailed wrap around foliate bands. Above the square central supports are the striking patinated bronze urns with beautifully detailed foliate designs and stunning scrolled ormolu acanthus leaf arms which lead up each side in a superb satin and burnished finish. All original gilt throughout.
