French Art Deco Figural Garniture Clock Set
This wonderful clock garniture set from the Art Deco era is done in highly figured marbles and contrasting black marble. The set showcases the sleek, geometric shapes and colors so characteristic of the era. Greyhounds were also trending at the time for use in the decorative arts as well as pets. In this case they are elegantly flanking the central clock. The elongated oval dial, signed Valery, Limoges, sports stylized Art Deco numerals and hands. An eight day movement keeps the time and strikes a bell at the hour and half hour. A pair of trapezoid form urns beautifully finish this exceptional Art Deco garniture set.
