NEW YORK, NY -- Doyle will hold an auction of English & Continental Furniture & Decorative Arts on Thursday, January 29, 2026 at 10am. Showcased will be a wide selection of furniture, porcelain, mirrors, clocks, chandeliers, tapestries and rugs from prominent estates and collections.

Featured in the sale is a large and rare Louis XV gilt-bronze cartel clock signed Hardel a Paris, circa 1755 (est. $8,000-12,000). Parisian clockmaker Louis-Michel Hardel (also called Harel), received as Maître Horloger in 1753, supplied high-end clock movements to the bronzeworking ateliers that defined the Rococo style. Cartel clocks of this sculptural richness often originated from workshops associated with Jacques Caffieri, Philippe Caffieri, or Jean-Joseph de Saint-Germain, whose dynamic compositions remain icons of Louis XV decorative arts. This example is notable for its lively figural group, well-preserved original gilding, and the sophisticated scrolls and foliate ornament. Clocks of this type were intended for grand reception rooms and represent the height of mid-18th-century Parisian luxury.

Special sections of the sale will also present Old Master & 19th Century Paintings, Drawings & Prints (Read More) and English & Continental Silver (Read More) on Wednesday, January 28.
