DeepL Translate

This exquisite antique Edwardian sterling silver mantel clock features a simple rectangular design supported by four bracket-style feet.

The surface of this substantial silver gilt mantel clock is adorned with intricate bright cut engraved floral and insect motifs, complemented by applied rosette and bud garlands on the front.

The upper section of the clock showcases a contemporary bright cut engraved monogram with the initials 'MB'.

This remarkable antique silver mantel clock includes the original hinged hallmarked swing carrying handle.

The white enamel dial is decorated with black Roman numerals for the hours, surrounded by a plain black chapter ring indicating the minutes.

The clock face is visible through a circular glass 'window' framed by a simple applied silver gilt border.

The hallmarked hinged door opens to reveal the original French eight-day movement, which includes a hinged winding key with a uniquely shaped handle featuring a lobed fingerpiece.

The door is equipped with a rounded incurved thumbpiece for easy opening.

Both the exterior and interior of this striking timepiece are gilded.

The underside of the clock displays the retailer's mark 'Mappin & Webb, London'.

This outstanding antique mantel clock represents the pinnacle of its kind; such large gilt models are increasingly rare to find.

An antique clock serves as a sophisticated and meaningful gift, ideal for celebrating significant milestones or achievements. Its timeless charm makes it perfect for anniversaries, symbolizing lasting love and the journey of time shared, or as a thoughtful wedding present for couples who appreciate historical elegance. Antique clocks are also an excellent choice for retirement celebrations, marking the beginning of a new chapter in life, or as housewarming gifts, adding a unique touch of character to a new residence. They are particularly appealing to collectors, history aficionados, or anyone who values distinctive and artisanal craftsmanship.
