This French Art Deco mantel garniture from around 1925–1935 comprises a working, key-wound mechanical clock and two matching decorative pieces in marble and brass, with a half-hour strike on one gong.
Description from the seller
Description:
Beautiful French Art Deco three-piece fireplace garniture, consisting of a central clock and two matching decorative elements.
The set features a characteristic Art Deco geometric architecture, with a remarkable combination of polychrome marbles with natural veining.
The central clock combines a light marble with pink, cream and red tones, surrounded by strongly veined green and black marble parts. This alternation of colors creates a particularly decorative contrast, typical of the interwar period taste.
The clock is accompanied by two perfectly matching side elements, also resting on marble bases. The whole forms a particularly elegant symmetrical garniture intended to be displayed on a fireplace, a console, or a piece of furniture.
The circular dial is surrounded by a beautiful gilded metal bezel.
Movement:
The clock has an old mechanical key-wound movement.
The movement is functioning.
The clock is supplied with its winding key.
The striking is equipped with two gongs, present with the set.
The mechanism visible at the back shows a traditional brass mechanical construction dating from this period of antique clocks.
Condition:
Good overall condition considering the age of the piece.
The marbles show the natural variations of the material as well as some traces and marks corresponding to their age and use.
The set should be carefully examined in the photographs to appreciate any small chips or signs of wear on the edges.
The clock is functional and sold with its key.
