By the French firm Raingo Frères (French, founded in 1823), this spectacular three-piece set comprises a central clock and a pair of flanking candelabra, mounted upon small white marble bases, with extensive, spectacular Neoclassical sculptural works. The clock with a low dial is signed 'Raingo Fres / A Paris,' and is set within an ormolu-mounted white marble case, inlaid with figurative friezes on all four side.

It is surmounted by a signed patinated bronze figural group of dancers after Clodion that is signed 'Clodion / 1762' and 'Raingo F.res.' The pair of six light candelabra are similarly decorated, held aloft by very fine bronze figurative groups. An exceptional display set, adorned with superb sculpture, few clock sets can rival this for grandeur and artistry.
