MUSEUM QUALITY KLAFTENBERGER CLOCK ORMOLU GRIFFONS WOW
Unavailable
Incredible clock from the highly noted Klaftenberger Company at 157 Regents Street London. Regents Street is a perfect location for them as it appears that most of the clocks they produced were for royalty. As fine a maker of clocks as ever existed.
This clock is no exception. It has high quality all over the clock with exceptionally crisp castings. The griffons are a sublime combination of soft dore gold and the beak and tips of the wing picked out in a bright gold for contast. The porcelain inserts appear to be from Wedgwood though I found no marks on them. Exceptional all the way around . About 20" tall. The stand is wood and the velvet is faded from age where it isn't under the clock. Buy the best.
