    About this artwork

    Antique Bronze Gloria Statue Pendulum Clock

    A Timeless Echo of the Baroque

    This magnificent pendulum clock is more than a timekeeping device; it’s a statement piece imbued with the grandeur of 17th-century American antiques. Crafted from solid brass and finished in a rich antique bronze, this sculpture evokes an era of refined elegance and meticulous detail. The Gloria statue, poised gracefully atop a black marble base, captures a moment frozen in time.

    The Art of Mechanical Precision

    Each clock is meticulously assembled with a mechanical movement powered by a traditional key winding system. The 4" ball dial, adorned with classic gold Roman numerals and delicate hands, provides a clear reading against the backdrop of a continuously swinging cobalt blue globe-shaped face – a captivating ‘mystery’ element that draws the eye. The intricate floral motifs embellishing the base speak to the dedication of skilled artisans.

    Substantial Presence & Tactile Luxury

    Weighing 9.8kg and standing an impressive 350x230x750mm, this clock commands attention without overwhelming a space. The cool smoothness of the marble base contrasts beautifully with the warm texture of the aged bronze sculpture, inviting touch and admiration. The three curved feet provide stability and further enhance its sculptural form.

    Styling & Care for Generations

    Ideal for grand living rooms, formal dining areas, or sophisticated studies, this clock adds a focal point to any interior. To preserve the beauty of your investment, dust regularly with a soft cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners. Please note that due to its handcrafted nature, production typically requires 30-50 days, and shipping is primarily by sea freight for secure transport.
