This is a museum-quality French pendulum clock from the 19th century, a masterpiece of Parisian horology that unites the work of three esteemed masters: the celebrated Samuel Marti et Cie (awarded the Bronze Medal at the 1860 Paris Exposition), the sculptural case by Deprez, and the fine watchmaking of Barrard & Vignon.

Crafted from ornate gilded "régule" (a prized period alloy), this exceptional timepiece is a symphony of art and engineering. It is completely original and in perfect working order, striking the hours and a single chime on the half-hour.

The movement is marked with its award and the addresses of its creators, while the sculptural case is signed and numbered by Deprez.

A rare, documented, and fully functional investment in horological history.
