Dubuc, Paris Pendule ca 1810, Französische figurale Kaminuhr signiert Dubuc.

Maker: Dubuc – Clockmaker Description: A rare early 19th century French ormolu clock that depicts a maiden supporting a milk jug surrounded by barnyard animals. Both she and the sheep have enamel eyes similar to those found in the blackamoor series. Case: The well-cast ormolu case depicts a barnyard scene with a maiden supporting a milk jug accompanied by several animals that include a sheep, rooster, a chicken with her hens and a lamb. Both she and the sheep have enamel eyes similar to the ones found in the blackamoor series. The whole stands on an oval base with four unusual bird feet. Dial: The white porcelain dial has black Roman numerals for the hours, steel-cut Breguet-style hands and is signed ‘Dubuc’. Movement: The eight-day time and strike movement has a silk-thread suspension that is adjusted off the back-cock, a pendulum with a butterfly bob and strikes on a bell. Notes: Dubuc is listed as working at Rue du Grand-Hurleur in 1800. They produced some wonderful examples including the desirable George Washington series.
