Louis XVI style table clock made of gilded bronze, patinated and marble. The piece is supported by six golden legs. The base, has a mixtilinear structure with rounded side profiles, so as to create a play of volumes. On this base is the clock case, designed with a white dial with Roman numerals in black and gold and openwork hands. Finally, the piece ends with the sculptural presence of two children as angels flanking the clock case. Originally each one carried a musical instrument, but nowadays one of them has lost it. In the upper area, as a crest, there is the presence of a nude female figure.
