New Coloured Chinoiserie Clocks

Here is a brief preview of our new coloured chinoiserie clocks. chinoiserie has been part of the Comitti repertoire since the company began more than hundred years ago. It is a traditional European craft form dating from the seventeenth century and largely pioneered in France. Essentially, a whimsical evocation of classical chinese arts and craft design married to the classic European renaissance style.


Comitti now offer three new chinoiserie clocks in red, green and blue to compliment our existing range on black lacquer. These high colour treatments are also an authentic chinoiserie finish or style. In fact, red was one of the most common base colours for traditional chinoiserie decoration.

Comitti and Walpole British Luxury

Many of you may find this site to be quite interesting and also rather inspiring http://www.thewalpole.co.uk/ . Walpole British Luxury is dedicated to the promotion of all of our most iconic national brands and by default also provides something of an insight into the current state of classic British design.


Comitti are pleased to announce that we will be displaying some of our most iconic products to a select gathering of journalists and industry pundits later in June. We will report further on this next month and look forward to this highly prestigious publicity for our clocks.
