AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An imposing and unusual museum-quality Art Deco pendulum clock - Amsterdam School from the 1910s-1930s.
The symmetrical, angled clock case is typical Art Deco and crafted largely from solid, finely grained oak, exceptionally beautiful to behold.
The front features inward-sloping sides in which, in the center, the solid heavy brass dial is framed like a painting.
The brass numeral plate is in a splendid, untouched patina finish, and equipped with a handsome and striking numeral execution that characterizes the Art Deco style and is the absolute focal point of this pendulum clock, with the sleek hands.
The movement is of good quality and, where needed, lightly oiled again and is leveled.
The round-gong strike has a special design, with the base representing a dragon and is made of green copper-brass.
The rear panel closes with two hooks, and the clock features a copyright plaque, meaning that this clock version had a patent and exclusivity and was produced in small runs.
An absolute top Art Deco clock that you will rarely, if ever, find in this condition; the case remains undamaged with largely solid components.
Connoisseurs and collectors can gauge the value of this imposing Art Deco pendulum clock, suitable for any type of interior.
The clock is shipped with the original key and carefully packed to destinations exclusively within Europe.
