(lot of 3) French Louis XVI style bronze dore and Carrara marble mantel garniture set, 19th c., including: (1) mantel clock, reclining cherub surmounting the architectural case, with fluted columnar supports, centering white dial with Arabic hour markers, faint mark Leroys?, time-and-strike movement marked Samuel Marti, on turned-form feet, accompanied by Apollo mask pendulum, figure lacking element held in hand, not currently operational, approx 14"h, 9"w, 5"d; (pair) matching two-light candelabra garnitures, approx 11"h, 7"w, 3.25"d; 24lbs total
CR 11.11.25- As mentioned in the catalog description, the clock is accompanied by a pendulum, though the movement winds with relative ease, it does not respond to winding, the pendulum is ill-fitting and in need of adjustment as it slides along the back of the case interior when manually pushed, the bell and striker are present and resound nicely when manually struck, as mentioned the figure is lacking the element held in its hand, as with all of our antique clocks, this piece would likely benefit from a professional inspection and a thorough cleaning
