Description
This clock is an elegant piece that embodies the Art Nouveau style, reminiscent of the work of Louis Majorelle (1859-1926). The clock is a tall, free-standing piece with a slim, elongated body. The design is highly decorative, with a blend of Mahogany. This wood is accented with Brass decorations, which are used for the framing, floral motifs, and structural elements. The top of the clock showcases detailed floral decorations, with flowers and stems crafted from Brass. These motifs are placed on the wood, adding to the organic and nature-inspired feel of the clock. The same floral designs are repeated on the lower parts of the clock, particularly around the pendulum and on the legs. The pendulum is prominently displayed in the center of the lower portion of the clock. It features an intricately designed disk, with floral or geometric engravings, in keeping with the Art Nouveau period. The clock stands on four slender legs, each adorned with metal floral decorations. The legs are connected by a curved base, adding stability and complementing the overall design. The clock face is round with the numerals are in an Art Nouveau style, featuring an elegant, flowing font. The center of the clock face is decorated with intricate floral or geometric patterns, contributing to the overall ornate appearance. Powered by a fine Fusee movement. The design and decoration are highly characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement, particularly resembling the work of Louis Majorelle, who was known for his exquisite furniture and decorative arts that often incorporated flowing lines and nature-inspired motifs. The clock is both functional and a piece of art, blending craftsmanship with the aesthetic beauty of the era. Stamped underneath 'Depose' a serial number and designer.
