This wonderful Fabergé style table clock is crafted from the finest materials, including lustrous green guilloché enamel, yellow and rose gold, and precious stones.
This table clock is crafted in the manner of Fabergé. The clock is formed of a triangular body, the surface of which is finished with green guilloché enamel. The exterior edge of the clock is encompassed by a yellow gold frame inlaid with a band of white enamel. The guilloché enamel surface of the clock is mounted at each of the three corners with a yellow gold figure-of-eight laurel wreath tied with a bow of rose gold and set within the larger loop with a purple precious stone. The white guilloché enamel clock dial, centrally placed, is enclosed by a ring of white precious stones and bounded by an enamel inset gold band similar to the one that defines the edge of the clock. The dial is inscribed with Arabic numeral hour marks.
The clock is supported by a scrolled easel backing and is contained by a velvet-lined wooden box. Spurious Fabergé marks in Cyrillic are inscribed throughout, including upon the clock dial, the movement, and the interior of the case.
