Watch 1830 - 1865

This silver pocket watch, created by Louis Archinard Bovy between 1830 and 1865, is a prime example of 19th-century craftsmanship. Its ornate, engraved case, featuring an elaborate design, holds a small, delicate image of a building by a body of water. The watch, housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a beautiful and functional piece of decorative art.
