Lepine Mantle Clock Dore bronze and glass, two train (missing the strike train), single spring driven, balance wheel escapement, eight-day, non-striking mantel clock made in a form approximating an Anglaise variant of a carriage clock, retailed by the firm of Lepine of Paris, unsigned movement of Continental origin (original most likely French), made circa 1900. [With Twentieth century alterations.] Case: 30 cm x 28 cm x 13 cm Dore bronze mantel clock made in a form of carriage clock which has a close to square shape and styled in a variant of the Anglaise carriage clock style. It is a mantel clock because of the style of the movement within the case (see below). The case has gilt brass fluted pilasters at the four corner posts and glass on the faÃÆ’§ade, sides and back of the case. There is Dore bronze shaped and fluted carrying handle above with gilt plumes at the centre and at the end of the handle a mobile hinge. There is a large rectangular bevelled glass lenticel on the flat pediment of the case. Not shown but allowing visualization of the platform escapement. There is also a repeat strike on demand button at the front, which in this clock may be useless since there appears to be nor strike train currently in the movement. Below the overhanging pediment is a row of gilt foliate ornamentation above the horizontal gilt frieze over the dial. The two Corinthian type fluted pilasters flank the glass overlying the dial. Below is a double beaded border across the faÃÆ’§ade of the case (the sides are not shown) and likely goes fully around the four sides of the base. There is a broad architecture base with recessed faÃÆ’§ade, sitting flat to the surface and flanked by Dore bronze plinths, slightly thrust forward, upon which rest the fluted pilasters. Dial: square silvered dial plate with round Roman hour enamelled chapter ring, closed minute track to the outside, steel Breguet hands, no winding apertures and the dial centre is marked for “Lepine a Paris†(see history). Movement: Round solid brass plate movement, brass tubular pillars connect the plates and are pinned at the back plate, marine lever, i.e., balance wheel lever escapement, steel cut pinions, two-barrel springs should power the clock for eight days and cause striking, but the strike train has been removed. The strike train is usually placed on the left side when looking at the dial and therefore looking at the movement from the rear it should normally be on the right side, and that is where it appears to have been removed. There is no need for a pendulum since the clock uses a balance wheel escapement. In fact, the lever has a vertical pointer at the top of the movement for making the movement run faster and slower. This was likely a French made time and strike French made movement where the anchor escapement and strike side was replaced with a balance wheel time only movement between the plates. Condition: Case – Not a true carriage clock although with the alterations, it can serve as one if you drive a horse and carriage. (Well, it is better for the environment.) The case has some green areas of oxidation and indicates a high content of copper in the brass, since cupric oxide is green. Movement – Missing its strike train and the time train has been replaced with a lever-balance wheel escapement. Movement unsigned. Dial: Good with patchy darkened areas of oxidation of the silvered surface. c. Circa 1900 with 20th century alterations
