Art Deco Style Chrome or Silveroid Desk Timepiece

About the Item

Presenting a lovely Art Deco style chrome or silveroid desk timepiece. Probably made circa 1980. The case is a solid circular shaped chrome or silveroid case with a quartz (battery operated) timepiece insert. It has a solid arched foot/stand to the rear to keep it upright for display. It is a ‘simple’ but very practical piece and most definitely in the ‘Art Deco’ style, like car mascots etc. In super, original working condition. The perfect accessory for a man’s desk ! Art Deco, sometimes referred to as Deco, is a style of visual arts, architecture and design that first appeared in France just before World War I. Art Deco influenced the design of buildings, furniture, jewelry, fashion, cars, movie theatres, trains, ocean liners, and everyday objects such as radios and vacuum cleaners. It took its name, short for Arts Décoratifs, from the Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes (International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts) held in Paris in 1925. It combined modern styles with fine craftsmanship and rich materials. During its heyday, Art Deco represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and faith in social and technological progress.
