A French gilt bronze cartel clock after a design by Jean-Charles Delafosse (b. 1734- d. 1789), circular white enamel dial with Roman and Arabic numerals marked 'Barancourt a Paris'. Late 19th century. H. 82 cm. W. 44 cm.
This cartel clock follows a design of a clock, now at Waddeston Manor, by Jean-Charles Delafosse (d. 1791) of circa 1770 (illustrated in H. Ottomeyer, P. Pröschel et al., Vergoldete Bronzen, Munich, 1986, vol. I, p. 182, fig. 3.8.2), while the same version is in Schloss Nymphenburg, Munich, (illustrated op. cit., p. 182, fig. 3.8.1.). Interestingly it also has a movement by Gille L'Ainé, who specialised in movements for cartel clocks.
