Description from the seller
French Art Deco Mantel Clock with Greyhound – Red Veined Marble & Bronze – ca. 1930
This clock works and the winding key is present!
One glass knob is missing.
Style: Art Deco
Period: Circa 1930
Origin: France
Materials: red-veined marble, black marble, brass, bronze-colored metal (regule)
An iconic and exceptionally elegant Art Deco clock set from the 1930s. This set perfectly embodies the geometric luxury and aesthetics of interwar interiors. The clock itself features an impressive circular backplate in beautifully deep red and white-veined marble. The dial is minimalist in design with a glass protective cover and stylized, geometric brass hour markings and hands, typical of the Art Deco period. On the left side of the base sits a small abstract detail of contrasting marble/onyx. Beside the clock rests a refined, detailed bronze-colored (cast iron/regule) sculpture of a reclining borzoi (Russian Wolfhound). This animal was the symbol of speed, elegance, and status in Art Deco art. The whole stands on a sleek, deep-black pedestal that provides a modern and chic contrast.
The clock is carefully packaged and shipped worldwide.
