AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Figurative mantel clock in solid gilt bronze - "Collection d'Art" - with original price tag

A Family Treasure with History and Majestic Presence. I offer for sale an fascinating and elegant figurative mantel clock in solid cast bronze finely chased and gilded, a superb work by the renowned Italian manufactury "Collection d’Art" (Bologna), famous worldwide for its high-quality artistic reproductions dedicated to interior decoration.

The design, inspired by the refined historicism of the 19th century (Napoleon III / Charles X Style), centers around a circular central case decorated with a dense relief laurel garland, crowned by an elegant pinnacle. On the sides, two full-figure male statues in period dress support the structure, resting on a luxurious rectangular plinth richly chased with floral motifs, seed heads, and perimetrical beading.
Dimensions: 20 x 18 x 10 cm. Dial: White enamel with black Roman numerals, in perfect condition, free from threads, chips or defects. Movement: High-precision mechanism with 11 jewels (stamped Eleven 11 Jewels / Unadjusted), equipped with international industrial patent (8.A.250 Breveté France et Étranger) and blocking system (Désarmage).

The item still retains its original vintage sale tag ("Collection d'Art - La casa famosa nel mondo"), a rare detail to find that certifies its provenance and significantly increases its collectibility value.
Condition and technical notes. The clock presents in excellent aesthetic and structural condition, with the gilding preserving a beautiful vintage luster, although it can be cleaned and polished further. At the time of inspection the movement answers to rear winding and engages; however, for maximum professional seriousness and being a sophisticated antique device, a technical service is recommended to ensure perfect operation over time. Additionally, for reliability, all technical information (S.e. & o.) has been obtained from a watchmaker since I am not a sector expert.

For this lot a high-quality shipping and packaging service is guaranteed. The clock will be packaged individually using protective materials (bubble wrap and other materials) to eliminate any risk of impact or vibration during transit. The original tag will be protected separately to avoid tearing. Shipping will be entrusted exclusively to leading international express couriers (UPS, DHL or FedEx). A real-time tracking number will be provided as soon as the package has departed. It will also be insured for the full amount.
