Stunning Gilt Bronze and Pink Sevres Panel Clock by Klaftenberger c1870
the beautiful Gilt and porcelain panel clock by Jean-Baptiste Delettrez (1 May 1816 – 25 May 1887) he was a renowned 19th-century French clockmaker.
Delettrez and Achille Brocot, son of the respected clockmaker Louis-Gabriel Brocot, established the clockmaking company "Brocot et Delettrez" in Paris on 20 October 1851, with premises at 62 Rue Charlot. Delettrez worked alongside Achille Brocot for several years and their clock movements are considered to be the most effective made during the late 19th century. Their speciality was a range of clocks based on the innovations of Brocot père and his other son Antoine. The clock was retailed by the famous Klaftenberger of Regent Street London.
The fine French movement has been fully overhauled by me personally and has been polished using chalk. Although labour intensive this is a traditional method that brings a finish that simply cannot be replicated with modern cutting compounds. This clock comes with a full three years guarantee for your piece of mind.
