This Rare French Art Deco Mantle Clock With Metal Bird, works perfectly and has a standard 2 prong plugin. Wear is consistent with age and use. And the mantle clock is in good vintage condition with some surface scratches and cracking on the base. There’s some adhesive filler used to uphold and maintain the structural integrity of the bird’s base and surrounding foundation, which is to be expected of an item from the 1930’s. The second hand rotates on a smooth gliding pendulum and doesn’t tick for each second. This expensive technique was only done for the finest of pieces, typically for Royalty, to ensure the quiet tranquil calm and stillness encompassing this clock. This timepiece is made from the finest quality of Marble, Alabaster, and the timing mechanisms incorporate the use of metal, bronze casting, and expert Metal Working throughout.
