Four-Glass Clock - L’epee - Brass - 1980-1990 - The Sword 1839 - The Corinthian

Splendid table regulator clock signed L'Épée 1839, a historic and prestigious maker of haute horlogerie in France. This specific specimen, dating to the early 1980s, is a precious family memento belonging to my grandparents, kept over time with the utmost care. The model, named "Le Corinthien", features a majestic cage-style case in gilt brass with four smooth columns and double-beveled (machined) thick glass, which fully reveals the refined inner mechanism. The clock stands 27 cm tall, 17.3 cm wide, 13.5 cm deep, and weighs a substantial 4.6 kg, attesting to its extraordinary build quality and the solidity of the materials. The attached photographs are an integral, substantial, and detailed part of this description. The eight-day mechanical movement is in perfect working order and is equipped with a noble mercury-filled temperature-compensated pendulum, a sophisticated antique complication no longer produced today and highly sought after by enthusiasts for its technical charm and precision. The item is in excellent condition, like new, and preserves the original brilliance of the gilding intact. Only a single superficial time stain on the upper part of the brass is noted, clearly visible in the photo: a slight mark of its history that has deliberately been left as is to preserve the original patina, but which is easily removable with a specific and gentle brass cleaner. The clock is extraordinarily complete with all its rare original period accessories (Full Set), a very rare item that certifies its authenticity and increases its value: the original double-ended winding key, the illustrated period instruction booklet, and the original rigid case with a padded protective interior. To ensure maximum safety and the absolute integrity of the delicate mechanical suspension and the vials, the mercury pendulum is removed from its housing and separately wrapped in protective bubble wrap before each shipment, ready to be delicately reinserted at destination. An authentic masterpiece of horological art, rich in history and with deep sentimental value.
