Table clock: Louis XV style; circa 1870. Gilt bronze. Paris movement. Measures: 38 x 27 x 14 cm. Ornamental table clock in the historicist style, made of gilt bronze. Its design is directly inspired by examples from the Rococo period, from the mid-18th century, hence the absolute pre-eminence of the decorative aspect over the structure, which can barely be seen, being completely overwhelmed by the stems, leaves, flowers and scrolls that decorate the piece. The piece sits on a rectangular base, richly ornamented with acanthus leaves, which is structured around the perimeter. The base is supported by four sinuous legs that give way to the body, where the box is located. This area is dominated by the presence of a large dial with black Roman numerals and gilt hands, although it is worth noting that the lower part of the dial shows a grid-like design, as do the sides, a stylistic characteristic that was common during this period. The upper part of the clock is topped with a crown defined by a bouquet of flowers.
