Pendulum clock - Mauthe - Art Deco - Cast brass, Walnut - 1950-1960 - ナポレオンの帽子

Fascinating and authentic mantel clock produced by the famous German manufactory Mauthe (F. Mauthe GmbH, Schwenningen) in the latter half of the 1930s. The clock perfectly embodies the Art Déco style of the era, with a walnut case finely shaped into a Napoleon hat and enriched by elegant decorative carvings applied to the sides of the dial. The dial, protected by a convex glass bulging window with a brass front-opening frame, features raised Arabic numerals and finely cut golden hands. On the back, the brass mechanism plate bears a stamped serial number 633186 and the technical inscription “34” (referring to the nominal pendulum length). The movement is equipped with anchor escapement and chime on harmonically tuned bars (metal rods), delivering a deep and melodic toll. The item comes complete with its original metal winding key.
