About the Item

A beautifully executed mid-19th century mantel clock by the esteemed Ansonia Clock Company, featuring the “La Layon” model in collaboration with Royal Bonn, one of Germany’s most celebrated porcelain manufacturers. The striking porcelain case, marked “Bonn, Germany – La Layon”, is richly hand-painted with a delicate still-life composition of florals and foliates in soft hues of lavender and yellow, accented with finely detailed gilt highlights and romantic floral motifs. The artistry and color palette lend the piece a graceful, timeless presence, making it an exquisite focal point in any setting. The clock is fitted with a high-quality American 8-day brass time and strike movement with Brocot escapement, signed both on the dial and the movement by Ansonia Clock Co., a hallmark of fine horological craftsmanship. The porcelain dial retains its original hands and numerals, and displays a faint hairline, which is consistent with age and does not detract from its charm or function. The case is in very good overall condition, with no chips, cracks, or repairs. Measuring approximately 14¼ inches high by 14¼ inches wide and 5½ inches deep, this exceptional timepiece blends technical sophistication with decorative beauty. A rare and collectible work of art and elegance.

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...
