Antique Japy Freres Gold and Black French Clock Woman with Cupid Topper
Antique Japy Freres (also LB w/ Lion). Gold & Black French Clock Case Woman w/ Cupid Topper. Slate Incised Pieces and Face Runs? Antique neoclassical style clock. Would make a great gift for a special occasion, or keep for yourself! Nice project clock for someone here. What a large clock in size and an elegant one as well that this clock is before one even starts to talk about the quality of construction and detailing. The clock probably dates to the 1880s to 1890s based upon the design of the clock movement and the maker. This clock case is made of a non-bronze material that then has a gold colored lacquer on it. Then what appears to be slate piece on the front with a gold incising design on them. The base just below the figurine is slate. Some minor chipping in places, but no cracks or repairs to report to you. The board at the bottom of the case that holds the gong is loose and needs some tightening attention. What is just so eye catching on this clock is the non-bronze topper of a Lady and a Cupid holding an arrow on the top of the case. Some sort of spelter topper here, this is not made of bronze. The detailing of this woman is very well done as is the detailing on the bench she is sitting on with the quiver of arrows leaning up against it. The detailing on the fingers, toes and face is exquisite and all the delicate details are still in place. Someone attached the figurine to the case by using a couple of mini-wrenches and then some wing nuts which obviously is not appropriate to the clock, but it works. On the case, there is a ribbon above the clock face with pineapples on each side. Then a full body cupid on the front center of the case. Do not see any maker’s marks or initials on the figurine. The figurine is securely attached to the rest of the clock. Rear door is still securely in place and has some older fabric in it still. Beautiful black colored clock face on this clock which appears to be made of slate as well. Then has the gold colored roman numerals painted on the face. No cracks or hairlines to the face. Beautiful gold colored raised numbers tacked on to the clock face. The clock has gold colorede hands that do not match. Erlin & Co on the top of the face. The bezel is firmly attached to the case that holds the beveled glass. The beveled glass is intact, some minor surface scratching. Great Japy Freres movement in this clock. Movement was just evaluated by Clock Doc. Missing one of the verges that make contact with the palette and teeth on one of the gears are bent and one of the teeth is missing. So, our Clock Doc is not in position to correct. The back plate of the movement also has a full lion figure with LB incised in it, as well as the number “10318” incised below that. There is also the number “1419” and “48” on the center bottom of the back plate above the logo. The number “1419” is on the movement and the number “1414” on the pendulum bob. The clock has a gong chime. Strikes once on the half hour and the number of hours on the hour. The pendulum is with the clock. The time and strike springs feel sound when keyed. Pawl not holding time spring in place when wound all the time, so then the hands will spin. The movement could use a good cleaning and servicing. The rear door on the clock is in beautiful condition and securely attached to the case. The clock comes with a wind key. The clock stands 20.75″ tall (the statue is 11″ of that height), by 14.25″ across, by 6.25″ wide. The clock face is 3.75 across. The clock may be partially disassembled topper taken off, etc. Let us know if you have any questions or need additional pictures.

Antique Gilbert Regulator No 3 Wall Clock 1870s Rosewood Case Time Only
Antique Gilbert Regulator No 3 Wall Clock 1870s Rosewood Case Time Only Running. Would make a great gift for a special occasion, or keep for yourself! This is a very nice Gilbert Regulator No 3 Clock that is rare and uncommon to be available in the market place. Do not see another one available in any internet clock store at the time of this listing (let me know if one of you sees one). The wood case which appears to be made of rosewood has a lot of its’ original elegance. The wood appliques on the front of the case are all in place as well. The condition of the case is very nice. The topper and finials are all in place, some condition issues, see below. Great looking brass movement on this clock as well, see the pics. Ingenious how Gilbert made the sliding rosewood panels behind the pendulum and bob to mask the lead weight from being seen. No loose wood pieces on the case, all the carved appliques and finials are in place. The locking latch for the door is still on the side of the case. Hinges for the door are in working order. The back panel on this clock really shows a lot of age, a crack in it from about 1/3 of the day down from the top running to the bottom. The topper is all there. The topper appears to have been dropped at some point as you can see where split across the piece, under the lady’s face, and repaired at some point in the past. The three bottom finials are in place, the center one has part of the point and cone just above the point cut off on the back. The leveler plate is still in place at the bottom of the case. Nice intact glass piece on this case. As noted before, the glass on the front of this clock case is just beautiful and intact. Has a couple of molding bubbles in it as well! The glass has no blistering or cracks. Cannot say if the glass is original, but looks appropriate. The clock face is made of paper applied to tin. Says “Wm L Gilbert Clock Co” and “Winsted, Conn” on it. The paper face is most likely a replacement one applied to the original tin pan. The clock hands match and look appropriate to the clock. Did not see any marking on the front plate of the brass movement. The movement design and hanger for the pendulum matches up with other Gilbert Regulator movements we have found pictures of online at the sites we refer to. This is an eight day movement. Beautifully detailed brass cable and pulley the weight hangs from. The leaded weight looks appropriate to the clock, cannot say if original. This is a weight driven time only movement. Great wood pendulum rod (no splits or repairs) and brass bob on this clock that look appropriate to the clock. Much of the paper label is still on the back of the case. The clock stands 48″ tall, by 15.5″ across, by 6-7/8″ wide (by topper, 6″ by case). The clock face is 7-5/16 across. Let us know if you have any questions or need additional pictures.
