AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant vintage green marble desk set – quartz clock and gilded pen holders.
Characterful vintage desk set, composed of a heavy natural green polished marble base, a circular desk clock with Roman numerals, and two gilded metallic pen holders.
This elegant set evokes executive offices and prestige accessories of the late 20th century. Its combination of green marble, gold metal, and a Roman numeral dial gives it a particularly decorative presence.
In the center is a circular quartz movement clock, framed by several decorative gold rings. The dial features large black Roman numerals and bears the inscription “QUARTZ,” as well as “TAIWAN MOVT,” indicating a quartz movement made in Taiwan.
On either side of the clock sit two elegant gilded metallic pen holders, mounted on the same marble base. A rectangular gold plaque is also present at the front of the base, originally intended to receive an engraving or personalization.
The base is made of polished green marble showing beautiful natural variations in hue and veining. Its weight and finish give it a particularly elegant presentation on a desk, in a study, or in a classic interior.

The green marble shows beautiful natural variations as well as some small marks consistent with its age and use.
The clock could not be tested at the time of listing, as no suitable battery was available. Its operation is therefore not guaranteed. A movement check and/or battery replacement may be necessary.

A very beautiful decorative object for vintage desk accessory enthusiasts, desk set collectors, or anyone seeking a unique and elegant piece for a desk or library.
Careful shipment with reinforced protection.
