Authentic 19th-century French Comtoise clock pediment that doubles as a
statement wall art or a luxury furniture embellishment. Ideal as an
architectural salvage accent above a doorway, mounted on an antique
mirror or cabinet, or simply hung on a gallery wall.
Made of heavy solid cast brass, this beautiful antique "fronton
d'horloge" features iconic French Restauration period symbolism: the
radiating Sun King /Le Roi Soleil/ at the top, flanked by four
intricately detailed cherubs, and a central five-pointed star inside a
wreath.
Width - 23 cm (9 inches)
Height - 21 cm (8.2 inches) — measured perpendicularly from the top of the longest sun ray to the baseline.
Very good antique condition with an authentic natural patina. No
structural damage or cracks. Please review all photos for visual
details.
