A Parisian Régence period "tête de poupée" clock

Boulle style marquetry with engraved brass in brown tortoiseshell, ormolu mountings, white dial with blue numerals under domed glass. Eight-day movement with thread suspension, half-hourly strike on a high-pitched bell, hourly strike on a lower pitched bell. A small cartouche-form table clock crowned by a figure of a putto with a conductor's baton. Signed to the dial and plate: "Chles.Beauvillain AParis". Minimal older repairs over cracks in the tortoiseshell, the finial slightly loose, one of the attributes lacking. H 40 cm.
Charles Beauvillain, master since 1733.
