Antique Art Nouveau Bronze Sculptural Patinated Desk Clock withWoman Figure c. 1900
Antique Art Nouveau Patinated Bronze Desk Clock with Woman Figure c. The body of the clock is decorated with floral motifs designed in very special Art Nouveau manner. These so-called “whiplash” elements were the most exclusive and typical Art Nouveau characteristics. The main part of decoration, however, i s a beatifully scupltured figure of a woman with free-flowing hair and dress. Very elegant and stylish work of art! The clock is made of solid cast bronze and patinated to a beautiful color. The body is in a very good shape with only minimal wear and no damage. Clock is housed in a metal canister set into opening having a porcelain dial. The body is marked on base at rear: “F7″ and “1159” – I don’t know how to interpret these marks. The mechanizm is not functional – I don’t know if it just requires cleaning or else. Please note – this is not a replica or fake – the is the real object from 1900 – 1910. I guarantee my dating.
