An elegant Franklin Mint “Empress Josephine” mantel clock inspired by the refined French Empire aesthetic.
Architectural in form, this neoclassical design features four fluted columns with ornate Corinthian capitals, hand-painted floral garlands, and rich gilt detailing throughout. The white enamel dial with Roman numerals is framed in brass and opens to reveal the pendulum movement, creating visual depth from every angle.
The piece references the romantic grandeur associated with Empress Josephine and the Château de Malmaison, making it as decorative as it is functional. Its sculptural silhouette reads beautifully on a mantel, console, or library shelf — equally at home in traditional, French, Hollywood Regency, or grandmillennial interiors.
Includes original Franklin Mint paperwork and warranty documentation.
Condition: Very good vintage condition with light, age-appropriate wear. Gilt detailing and painted florals remain vibrant. Please review photos for details.
A timeless statement piece that adds classical elegance and architectural presence to any space.
Likely produced in the 1980s by Franklin Mint.
