AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An elegant and authentic Art Deco mantel clock (pendule) with a characteristic Napoleon hat-shaped case. The clock is crafted from solid oak and features subtly hand-carved geometric patterns along the arch and a decorative shell-shaped crest on top of the bonnet.
The dial has a beautiful silvery sheen with prominent, graceful Art Deco-style Arabic numerals and open-work diamond-shaped hands. The dial is protected by a glass door in a brass lunettes that opens smoothly.
Mechanical condition:
The heavy mechanical movement on the back bears serial number 94589 and stamp 22. The clock is equipped with a atmospheric bim-bam strike that sounds with three hammers on three parallel tone bars (gongs).
Operation:
The clock is in fully working order; it runs accurately and the strike mechanism functions excellently.
Completeness:
Comes complete with the original associated pendulum disc and the winding key.
Condition:
Movement & striking mechanism:
Fully tested, runs and strikes well.
Case:
In vintage condition with a warm patina. There is a clear damage/chip at the bottom edge of the wood veneer on the right side (see marked detail photo). The wood otherwise shows light signs of aging appropriate to its age.
Dimensions:
Height: 32.5 cm.
Width: 53 cm.
Depth: 12 cm.
Weight: 4 kg.
The lot is carefully packaged and sent by registered insured mail with a track-and-trace number. Pickup by arrangement is also possible.
