Art Deco French Clock Set - Greyhound

1900 - 1920
Description

~ French - Circa 1925 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A stunning original French Art Deco clocks set. It features a beautifully captured figure of a greyhound, cubist in the manner of Michel Decoux (1837-1924). The case is a pyramid with applied geometric panels of specimen stones; onyx and a exquisitely figured pink, orange and red marble. The side urns are of complimenting design.

The dial is matted gold, screen printed with stylised elongated numerals and complete with it's original square form blued steel hands.

The French movement is of high quality and is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. It is a traditional 'Pendule de Paris' movement with a pendulum. Pendulum is a replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. We have a video of the clock running and striking, please ask and we will send you a link.

Condition of the case is excellent, the greyhound has its original finish with a lovely patina that has worn where the clock has been held for winding. Marble is also excellent with a very good polish and only very slight nibbles to the edges and corners. Dial is also very good with just some very slight marks.

Complete with pendulum, bell and a suitable key. Full setting up instructions supplied if required.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Originating in the 1920s and 1930s, French Art Deco clock garnitures typically consist of a central geometric mantel clock accompanied by two matching side garnitures. These sets emphasise symmetry, angular stepped silhouettes, multi-coloured stone, and stylized animal or figural sculptures.

Art Deco mantel clocks were predominantly constructed using variegated marbles, onyx, and slate arranged in geometric patterns. The decorative figures mounted atop the bases were usually cast in spelter, bronze, or brass with gilded, patinated, or cold-painted finishes.

Authentic pieces feature key design hallmarks of the period, including bold geometric typography on the dial, heavy marble or onyx casing with sharp angular cuts, and mechanical movements often manufactured in France.

Place the three-piece set symmetrically on a fireplace mantel, sideboard top, or console table. Grouping the clock with minimalist contemporary accessories allows the architectural stone patterns and metal sculpture to act as a focal point.

Clean marble bases using a dry microfibre cloth or a stone-safe cleaner, avoiding acidic solutions that damage polished stone. Metal sculptures should be lightly dusted, and mechanical movements require periodic professional servicing to maintain accurate timekeeping.
