Vintage Antique French or Art Nouveau Influenced Brass Cherub Clock
I’ve always found cherubs to be cute. Who doesn’t love these cute chubby winged fellas? When used in decor, they seem to elevate the richness of the piece using them. Such is the case with this Antique French Art Nouveau Clock. Adorable yet refined. The clock does not work and clearly you can see in the photos one hand is bent. However, this is sold for its antique richness in design, a great decor piece. It’s also worthy of restoration, because of its collectability. It stands about 8 inches tall by 6 inches wide and about 3.5 inches deep. Would look great in your collection or in that special spot in your living room. Let me share with you a little bit about the Art Nouveau period. Art Nouveau, translating to new art, was a dynamic and experimental international style of art and architecture that flourished from the 1890s until World War I. Inspired by nature's untamed aspects, it was characterized by curving lines, asymmetry, and organic motifs like tendrils and swirling lines.
