Antiques -
Reference: ZE298

Clock. Palo santo, rosewood, gilded bronze. France, 19th century, based on the model of Charles Cressent (France, 1685-1768). Grandfather clock with a wooden case that combines palo santo, rosewood and other woods, enhanced with a series of gilded bronze appliqués, which match the curved and counter-curved profiles of the piece. Both the decorative elements and these decorations respond to models of the French Rococo of the 18th century. This piece is inspired by the regulator clock in the royal collections of England, which is located in Buckingham Palace, and was made by Charles Cressent, a master cabinetmaker considered one of the main exponents of French Rococo, although he made pieces in the Regency style and at the beginning of the “rocaille style”. A master sculptor since 1719, he worked as a cabinetmaker and sculptor for the Regent Philip II, Duke of Orleans, and is well known and appreciated for his clocks, chests of drawers, andirons (J. Paul Getty Museum), etc.
