- 19th-Century Flame Mahogany Mantel Clock by Breguet Raised by Lion Paw FeetBy Breguet a ParisLocated in Oxfordshire, United KingdomAn extremely rare mantel clock with a figured mahogany-veneered case by A-L Breguet Abraham-Louis Breguet (1747-1823), who was of Swiss origin, is undoubtedly the most celebrated clockmaker of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries in France.

Built into the motion work which, when released by the clock, automatically sets the hands to the clock's time as well as correcting the watch's regulator necessitated by any degree of inaccuracy registered at the moment of synchronisation) and many other horological improvements and developments.

Breguet had previously sent his son to London to study with the great English chronometer maker John Arnold...Category
