AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Jaeger-LeCoultre table clock – Mid-century icon in patinated brass
Dimensions: 19.5 cm in height – 18.5 cm in diameter.
Movement: 8-day winding, mounted on 6 rubies.
Elegant and of rare purity of form, this Jaeger-LeCoultre desk clock perfectly embodies Mid-Century aesthetics. Its circular mineral glass dial, entirely transparent, appears to float in space, highlighted by a patinated brass ring with a subtle warmth. The applied numbers in aged gold, delicately painted, add a graphic touch typical of the house's modernist creations.
The fine and geometric hands, in a deep gold, express the watchmaking precision dear to Jaeger-LeCoultre, while the 8-day winding movement, set on 6 rubies, demonstrates exceptional mechanical expertise. The suspended mechanism, perfectly visible, offers a poetic reading of time.
The set rests on two cylindrical brass feet, providing stability, purity, and elegance to the design. Despite its age, the piece shows only minor signs of use, retaining a noble and uniform patina that enhances its charm.
With its uncommon large size and its lines of sculptural sobriety, this clock is as much a decorative object as it is a watchmaking piece, an emblematic creation of the mid-20th century, ideal for a refined collection or a distinctive interior.
