An original, decorative wall clock manufactured in Germany during the 1970s for the renowned brand Kienzle. The piece stands out due to its unique shape, which mimics a classic antique pocket watch, complete with a distinctive brass loop (or bow) at the top for wall mounting.
The substantial, convex casing is crafted from copper with a warm, rich luster, contrasted by a brass bezel surrounding the dial and brass body details. This German timepiece design fits perfectly into retro, nautical, and traditional study-style interiors.
