AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vega – Mechanical tabletop alarm clock in engraved glass – Italy, 1950s/1960s.
Refined vintage mechanical alarm clock from the Italian Vega manufacturer dating from the 1950s–1960s.
The clock is distinguished by its refined Mid-Century design: a sturdy faceted glass plate with elegant satin-finished geometric engravings framing the circular dial with gilded details. The back houses the manual-wind mechanical movement with independent alarm adjustment and a practical metal stand.
The piece represents a perfect example of postwar Italian design, capable of combining functionality and elegance. It is an ideal item for both vintage clock collectors and as a furnishing accessory for modern spaces or retro-styled interiors.
Conditions
Vega mechanical movement.
Mechanical alarm function.
Intact glass with normal light signs of age.
Good overall aesthetic condition, consistent with its age.
A standard maintenance check is recommended before continued use, as with all vintage mechanical clocks.
