A late 18th century French ormolu and marble figural mantel clock
Pochon a Paris
Depicting a classical woman dis-arming Cupid, the playful cherub lounging on a blanket over the enamel Arabic dial surrounded by floral festoons on a marble plinth, with ormolu panels and toupie feet, his torch, quiver and bow discarded on the left side of the clock, above cherub and floral mounts to the base supported by shaped feet. The Arabic enamel dial with gilt hour marker inlays and fine floral and geometric hands, above the red signature Pochon a Paris. The two-train movement with silk suspension, flat bottom circular plates and outside count wheel, striking on a bell, with a winding key 37cms (14.5ins) high
