Gilded bronze clock from the Empire period

Important Empire period clock in finely chased and gilded bronze featuring Diana the Huntress.

The dial signed L.Mallet in Paris indicates the hours in Roman numerals.
It is set in a terminal in the form of a fountain topped by a vase.
Leaning against the fountain, Diana the hunter holds an arrow above her head, a quiver
her head, a quiver at her feet. In the background, her dog and a bird.
The whole rests on a very finely chiseled base representing a stag hunt flanked by vine branches and horns of plenty that end in the form of hooves in the form of hooves on a porphyry terrace.
It has a cleaned and revised wire movement, its balance and key.

Very nice original gilding.

Parisian work circa 1810.
