Description from the seller
Beautiful wall clock with a pendulum and its matching support, signed by Comtesse.
Discover this rare and exceptional piece: an elegant wall clock with a pendulum from the prestigious brand Comtesse, accompanied by its original wall mount. This Swiss clock (inspired by the traditions of Neuchâtel) is a true jewel of vintage craftsmanship, combining refinement and authenticity.

Hand-painted décors: Delicate pink roses and floral motifs, entirely handcrafted with remarkable finesse, adorn the black case and support. A unique artisanal work that gives this piece a romantic and timeless charm.
- **Genuine gold gilding**: The edges, contours, and accents are enhanced with **pure gold gilding**, which subtly sparkles and adds an incomparable touch of luxury. This high-end finish is rare on vintage models.
Manual winding mechanism: Works perfectly with its original key for winding. The balance wheel oscillates gracefully behind the glass, adding a hypnotic animation and a gentle, nostalgic tick-tock.
