AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Art Clock by AMC with hand-painted color decoration in cherry red and dove blue. Cherry-red berries and a flower, dove-blue leaves and half-circles softly extend over the white glaze and follow the relief of the cartouche around the dial. On a mantelpiece or sideboard, the clock adds a modernist Art Deco accent.
For this object a Purchase Now price is also set, for those who want to acquire it immediately without waiting.
Description:
A cloud-shaped, raised cartouche with a central brass bezel and a dial with Arabic numerals, on a rectangular base with two relief side panels. The decoration is on the front; back and sides are plain white under glossy glaze. On the back is the round brass plate of the mechanical clockwork. On the bottom are stamped: 'A.M.C. Made in Belgium', the number 195 and a red number 69.
About the maker:
AMC is the brand name of Auguste Mouzin et Cie, a earthenware factory in Wasmuël, in the Borinage. Isidore Paulus started it in 1836; Auguste Mouzin took over in 1878. The factory made clocks and vases in Art Deco forms, numbered per model. The Clockarium in Brussels shows model 195 in another decor, as a pair with two vases. In 1952 liquidation followed.
In interior design:
Fits an Art Deco, retro or modern interior, on a mantelpiece, sideboard or bookshelf. The cherry red provides a warm accent against white or dark walls.
Condition:
Good. Front: here and there minor damage to the sprayed decoration, no flaking at the edges. Dial: stained. On the right of the bezel: a fine line and a discolored spot in the glaze. The soft gradient of the decor is production-related. The mechanical clockwork does not run. See the images. Offered as a decorative object, technically works not at present.
