The set comprises a central cercle tournant clock and a pair of flanking cassolettes. The clock is modelled as three full length standing female figures holding aloft the globular form dial with cherub surmount and standing upon an ormolu mounted white marble base. The pair of flanking cassolettes are similarly decorated. All pieces are signed and dated 'henry Dasson 1886'
Clock height 76cm, cassolettes height 67cm
The clock in the present three-piece clock set is inspired by the one attributed to François Vion, where likewise the Three Graces are linked to each other and support the orbit movement. There is an example from the Isaac de Camondo collection on display in the Louvre.
