About the Item

This mid century mantel clock is of exceptional quality, housed in a gilt and enamel case the blue enamelling flecked with gold imitate lapis lazuli. The eight day movement with platform escapement strikes on a bell, made audible through a beautifully pierced and engraved sound vent backed in yellow silk. The gilt roman dial has a pierced centre with renaissance style grotesques the brushed finish of which contrasts with the polished gilding behind. Dating from the 1960’s this clock is in exceptional near mint condition. These clocks were retailed by some of the most highly regarded jewellers of the 20th century including Asprey’s in London and Tiffany’s in New York. Other identical examples have been found signed by Cartier who presumably bought the model from Luxor. This is a flamboyant example of mid 20th century design and craftsmanship. Please note this clock requires servicing before it can be shipped.
