A Louis XV period ormolu cartel clock

White enamel dial with pierced gilt hands, domed glass, 14-day movement with verge escapement and striking on two bells. An imposing wall clock formed as a cloud in a rocaille cartouche populated by winged amoretti and crowned by a figure of a Classical lady with a burning torch. Engraved signature to the dial and plate: "Guillaume Gille à Paris". Re-gilt over some cracks and holes, the attributes of the putti in the lower section lacking. H 57 cm.
Paris, Guillaume Gille(s), master since 1753.
