About the Item

A French mantel clock from the early 20th century (c.1905–1920), featuring a bronze sculpture of a lady playing a harp atop a black and siena marble base. This clock evokes classical themes of music and grace, offering both aesthetic charm and mechanical precision. The finely cast gilded bronze figure, poised with expressive movement, adds artistic flair and serves as a tribute to the cultural refinement of the Belle Époque. She is seen strumming a lyre-shaped harp, symbol of harmony and creative inspiration. The clock is equipped in wire movement, celebrated for its craftsmanship and accuracy — still functional and visually pristine. The base combines deep black marble with a band of siena yellow marble, resting on ornate bronze feet, elevating the piece’s decorative appeal. With its imposing height of 62 cm (24.4 in), this piece was designed to be a focal point on a mantel, console, or grand piano, where light plays across the polished surfaces and gilded metal. Take into account that the colors on the items may vary depending on the type of lighting and the type of screen from which you see the images.
