This is a fabulous and original mantel clock from the early french Art Nouveau period, made around 1890. The clockcase is made of dark-red colored marble. Above the clockcase are two young women standing with roses in their hands. Both figurines are made of painted spelter and were made by the famous sculptors L. & F. Moreau. The enamaled dial is above lovely decorated with painted flowers. To the clock belong a pair of heavy garnitures in vase shape.
 
 
The clock has been serviced, the entire movement was cleaned by a professional clockmaker. The clock is in full working order, ever piece is still original and replaced.
 
 
The clock is in excellent, used condition and shows only light signs of use. It has only one small chip on the back of the clockcase.
 
 
The estimated value of this clock is 2500 - 3500 USD.
 
 
Some information about L. & F. Moreau, I found in the ebay guides:
 

 L&F Moreau were two brothers who were part of the Moreau dynasty of sculptors from Dijon France in the 19th century.  L&F Moreau were perhaps best known for creating highly ornate clocks and garniture sets in both bronze and spelter. The L stands for Louis Auguste (1855-1919), known for bronzes and metal sculptures. The F stands for Hippolyte Francois (1857-1930), a painter and sculptor.  Both of these men were each well-known artists and today are listed in the various important art guides (Davenports, Who's Who, etc.) and their work commands high prices and they have exceptional auction records -- their bronzes commonly bring upwards of $10,000.

 

 
Important: The weight of this clock is approx. 52.8 lb (24 kg) - for a secure shipping it is necessary to send the clock in two different parcels.

The total height of the clockcase is 24.0" (61 cm).
 
The length of the clockcase is 12.6" (32 cm).
 
The figurines only have a height of 16.1" (41 cm) and a length of 8.3" (21 cm).
 
Each vase has a height of 16.1" (41 cm).
 
 
This is a 100 % original and antique clock from the early Art Nouveau period - no reproduction!!
