AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Japanese Geisha desk clock

Watch mounted on a spectacular patinated bronze sculpture depicting a Japanese Geisha with her fist raised, which could be interpreted as a gesture of rebellion or women's liberation. Art Deco style.

Geishas are traditional Japanese artists dedicated to entertainment at gatherings or banquets. As you surely know, they have a very strong Japanese tradition.

The clock's face displays Roman numerals with very ornate gold hands. The clock's power reserve is between 1-2 days, and it has a built-in key on its back. It functions correctly. It has no damages except for some very slight normal signs of aging. It may be from the 1950s-60s.
It is of significant size, approximately 38 cm high, 19 cm wide, and 9 cm deep.

It will be shipped in appropriate packaging to protect it during transit via CATAWIKI's smart shipping service.
