About the Item

We are pleased to offer for sale a tabletop clock with alarm, crafted in the mid-20th century Modern period yet clearly inspired by the 1930s. Made by the German clockmaker Europa, a leader in travel-clock production, this vintage piece echoes the work of Paul Dupré-Lafon for the luxury house Hermès, featuring equestrian decorative themes such as the stirrup motif and stitched dark-brown leather. The clock is in perfect working order, having been recently serviced by a professional. The manual movement is wound from the back using the single wheel with a ring; the other wheels adjust the time, set the alarm, and the smallest one turns the alarm on or off. The contrast between the gilt metal and the stitched dark-brown leather is particularly elegant. The clock’s case is made of beautifully patinated brass, echoed in the gilt-metal details including the hands, numerals, bezel, and most notably the stirrup element. As mentioned, this vintage desk clock is fully functional and in good vintage condition. Light signs of age and use are present, such as a small scratch on the dial, which has been highlighted in the photos. Reach out with any additional questions

Italian Post Modern Table Lamp made in Murano Glass in the style of Umberto Riva
By Umberto Riva
Located in Roma, IT
Splendid Postmodern table lamp produced in Italy by the "Punto Luce" company using glass made by Murano glass artisans. This is an "atmosphere" lamp and not a reading lamp. The dimmable halogen bulb releases a light that is softened and tinged with pastel colors by the shaded and colored Murano glass. The lamp is essentially composed of two modules: The first is a base in light gray overlaid with white Murano glass, decorated with thin iron gray lines. This has a conical shape and houses the halogen bulb inside. The second is a large shaded Murano glass lampshade. Its concave shape, like an upside-down hat or a serving plate; unlike normal "lampshades" which force and direct the light into a cone, this diffuses it upwards, widening its radius. A heavy black enamelled metal base stabilizes the weight of the lamp making it very stable. The style of this lamp recalls the elegant and essential 80s lamps...
