麥穗紋是拿破侖愛妻約瑟芬皇后最愛的紋飾，她將之大量用於首飾，所以珠寶品牌製造的鐘錶中麥穗紋較常見。這件別致的小臺鈡以橢圓形白色大理石為基，一束麥穗分作兩枝，輕輕托起鈡身，白琺琅錶盤采用阿拉伯數字刻度，每一刻度由淡粉色玫瑰紋輕輕攏住，雙針，時針形如麥穗，鈡身背面的蓋子采用鏤空設計，形如玫瑰花窗且方便發聲，整座鈡秀麗雅靜，很可能是女性妝台上使用的小座鐘。

A French Gilt Bronze and Marble Lyre-Form Clock, Bourdier

十九世紀 法國銅鍍金太陽神里拉琴式神秘鈡
標記：BOURDIER A PARIS

法王路易十四自號太陽王，自那以後，太陽神就成了宮廷裝飾藝術品中不可或缺的元素。這件鐘錶頂部為太陽神阿波羅頭像，襯以背芒，下設一橫棖，墜著繁複精密的機芯與環狀錶盤，乍一看不知如何使之運轉——其實只要稍稍推動錶盤，神秘鈡即開始運轉，穩住錶盤，則停止走動，是爲“神秘鈡”。鈡身為路易十六時期風靡的里拉琴造型，飾滿玫瑰花、葡萄葉和連珠紋，白石束腰座與白琺琅錶盤相應，顯得華美而不失穩重。同樣造型的鐘錶可見承德避暑山莊藏“十八世紀法國嵌白石座自鳴鐘”，但本鈡的結構更爲精巧，製作難度更高。
Height 20 x width 7 x depth 5 1/4 in., 50.8 x 17.8 x 13.3 cm.
