RARE Japy Freres Slate Mantel Clock 948 Movement Skeleton Metal Repousse WORKS
Up for sale is a RARE Japy Freres Slate Mantel Clock 948 Movement Skeleton Metal Repousse WORKS!! This is an incredible French clock and this one is in working, fully functional condition and very nice shape. It is in a black slate case with gold color incised floral and vine decorations on the face. It also has metal repousse frieze depicting an antiquity scene that runs along the front and sides. The face is enamel I believe and has roman numerals indicating numbers. It is a partial skeleton clock, depicting some of the clock mechanism on the face of the clock which is incredibly cool to watch. Inside, the movement is stamped and marked as No. 948 as well as having the Japy Freres mark. It was difficult to photograph this so I did my best. The movement also is a pendulum movement on the inside and has a chime. This clock is in fantastic condition for the age I would say, and is in fully functional working condition. Sometimes the movement does stop after a short while, so some lubrication of the mechanism is likely required. When running, it works perfectly and keeps time well. There are a couple (4) small chips to the front edge of the base slate case but they are pretty minimal and not too noticeable. There is some cracking to the enamel face as well but this is also pretty minimal considering the age. Besides this, there is no other major damage to the piece; no cracks, no breaks, no repairs. The only other thing to mention is it does not have the original key, but a Waterbury Clock Co. It measures in at 14 1/4″ wide, 6 5/8″ deep, and 8 7/8 tall. It is quite heavy, and weighs in at 27 pounds, 11.4 ounces total. This ensures that we are covered in the event of an incident as well as making sure no dirty package thieves get their hands on this beautiful piece.
