About the Item

Antique Gothic Revival porcelain clock by Dagoty & Honoré French, c. 1830 Measures: Height 51cm, width 25.5cm, depth 17cm This beautiful Gothic Revival style porcelain clock was made by the prestigious French firm Dagoty and Honoré, founded by the esteemed porcelain makers Pierre-Louis Dagoty and Edouard Honoré. Dagoty and Honoré's factory in Paris was highly regarded in the early 19th century, and it came under the protection of the Empress Josephine, wife of Napoleon I of France. This green-coloured porcelain clock is one of the later and more accomplished works produced by Dagoty and Honoré, and is shaped to look like a Gothic cathedral, complete with spires, arches, and beautiful gilded highlights. The clock dial is set into the centre of the cathedral, and around it there are windows, turrets, and arches in the Gothic style. A the bottom there is an arched doorway with a trompe l'oeil scene showing figures in a landscape. At either side of the doorway there are further trompe l'oeil panels depicting Biblical figures, made to look as if they are stained glass panels, and above there further painted windows to the front and sides. The clock is marked 'Ancienne Maison Dagoty / Ed. Honoré A Paris / 4 Boulevard Poissoniere' to the underside.

The cylindrical drum contains a circular dial, the dial of porcelain and inscribed with Roman numerals.

Porcelain Clock in the Louis XV Style by Jacob Petit

Porcelain Clock in the Louis XV Style by Jacob Petit

By Jacob Petit

Located in London, GB

This antique porcelain mantel clock demonstrates the 19th century nostalgia for the delicately elegant decorative arts under King Louis XV, also known as the Rococo style. Crafted by celebrated porcelain artist Jacob Petit, this exquisite clock is particularly notable for the way in which the porcelain has been shaped so as to give the clock such a whimsically free-spirited, scrolling shape. The clock is formed as a clock case upon a lower base, which are both decorated as a though a singular piece with green glaze on a white ground, accented with painted floral panels and extensive gilt highlights all over. The clock case, which is particularly exuberant in design, features a central, circular clock dial. The white enamelled dial is bordered with beaded ormolu, and features black Roman numerals and the inscription 'Scherer'- the name of the 19th century Parisian clock...
