French Red Japanned Bracket Clock

A French red japanned and gilt chinoiserie bracket clock c1860. The fashion for the Louis XVIth style started around this time in France and this beautiful clock covers two bases by being in that style but also decorated in the chinoiserie manner. Charming figures decorate the base with floral garlands - which are much more Louis LVIth than Chinese! - around the remainder of the case. In good working order.
