AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Lot: Set of two hourglasses with a carved crystal base – Marine inspiration
Description:
Delicate set of two artistic-design hourglasses, both mounted on concave and irregular pressed crystal bases, richly carved. The bases evoke a beach landscape, with shapes reminiscent of seashells, waves, and natural textures, achieving an organic and elegant visual effect. The crystal, transparent and faceted, catches the light beautifully, underscoring the decorative character of the pieces.
Hourglass: Height 230 mm, diameter 150 mm. Contains black sand, with a duration of 30 minutes.
Small clock: height 150 mm, diameter 90 mm. Contains golden sand, with a duration of 10 minutes.
Both clocks feature blown glass bulbs, finely proportioned and perfectly integrated with their sculptural bases. The combination of materials, shapes, and colors achieves a balance between the functional and the ornamental, with a clear inspiration from the aesthetics of the marine world.
Condition of preservation
Excellent. No cracks or damage. Proper functioning of the sand flow. The cut details are intact and the crystal is in optimal condition.
Remarks:
Decorative pieces with a strong visual presence, ideal for collectors, interior design projects, or themed display cases. The harmony of sand in different colors and the sea-inspired design give the collection a unique artistic value.
