A FINE AND RARE FRENCH EMPIRE TOLE PEINTE NIGHT-AND-DAY PROJECTION TIMEPIECEBOFENSCHEN, PARIS, CIRCA 1815The circular four columnar pillar double-dialled movement with additional wheel added to the train to increase the duration from thirty-hours to several days, with verge escapement regulated by sprung three-arm monometallic balance incorporating rack-and-pinion regulation adjustment via a pointer on the dial, the rear with 2.25 inch circular concave silvered brass dial engraved with Arabic hour numerals and with conforming quarter hour markers, the front with circular white enamel dial with R/A regulation adjustment pointer over signature Bofenschen, a Paris to centre within vertical Roman hour numeral chapter ring and with Arabic quarters within the outer minute track, with blued steel moon hands set behind hinged engine-milled convex glazed gilt brass bezel, the ormolu mounted urn-shaped tole-peinte case painted to resemble porphyry with removable gilt leaf-bud cast finial to the concave lid decorated in gilt with collars over repeating leaf rim to base, the body with fine chiselled ormolu lions mask ring handles to each side over gilt acanthus decoration to waist, the interior with glazed aperture to the rear of the movement and fitted with a spirit lamp for reflecting an image of the concave silvered back dial through a conforming circular glazed aperture to the rear of the case, raised on swept foot applied with engine-turned gilt collars over a rectangular plinth applied with cast sunburst Apollo mask to front and stars to sides on lappet leaf moulded skirt base.52cm (20.5ins) high, 21cm (8.25ins) wide, 18cm (7ins) deep. Bofenschein is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as a maker of musical and automaton clocks working in Paris 1807-13. A very closely related timepiece by Bofenschen was sold at Sotheby's New York sale Mario Buatta: Prince of Interiors 23rd January 2020 (lot 32) for $7,500.Condition Report: As catalogued movement has been increased in duration from 30hr to several days by inserting another wheel in the train and moving the winding arbor. This would appear to have been done early in the clock's life and the rest of the movement appears to be in original condition. The movement will just about run when encouraged however a gentle clean/service is required. The enamel dial is in fine condition having only one small edge chip (cannot be seen with the bezel closed). The silver convex dial has some wear/degradation of the silvering otherwise is in good original condition. The spirit lamp to the inside of the vase is intact but will require filling and providing with a wick. The case is in very good original condition with some overall mellowing/patination and light wear to the painted surfaces and slight patchy discolouration to the gilt mounts.Timepiece does not have a winding key present.
