About the Item

A most beautiful clock set depicting the Greek myth of Leda and the Swan by the well known sculptor Pierre Sega. Leda holds the swan in her arms with his wing wrapped around her. The side pieces are tazzas with stems supported by swans. It is finely modelled in patinated white metal. A beautiful red and orange specimen marble is used for the bases along with a contrasting white veined marble. The dial is crisp white porcelain enamel with its original blued steel hands and convex glass. The dial is signed for the retailer, Chevauchee, Clermont-Ferrand. The French movement is of high quality and is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is original. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. We have a video of the clock running, please ask. Condition of the case is very good, the original finish has some rubbing, loss, discoloration and tarnish. The marble is also very good with some small nibbles to the corners and edges. The marble of the bottom of the case has an old repair. Signature of the artist P Sega the right hand side of the case. Clockmaker's mark on the movement backplate. Pierre Sega - although a prolific sculptor during the Art Deco period, very little is known about him. Believed to be French, or certainly worked in France, he produced many figural items including lamps and clocks. He worked mainly in spelter and made many pieces using celluloid materials as covering for wooden bases and clock surrounds, with faux tortoishell and pearlised finishes. He used a lot of classical subjects such as Pan, Pannette and Diane the Huntress. Complete with pendulum, bell and a suitable key. Full setting up instructions supplied if required.
