#AntiqueClock"Phillips is honored to present a collection of four unique museum-quality Art Deco Cartier Clocks hailing from a prestigious private collection across auctions in Hong Kong and New York.

Featured in The New York Watch Auction: X (8 & 9 June), the present clock also known as the Pendulette à Chevalet, from the 1920s and inspired by the Far East.

It is fitted with a striking jade bangle around the dial, a nod to the Asian influence on design, and made to look like an easel. Lotus motifs, symbolizing purity, rebirth, and divinity, further adorn the rock crystal.

Our Senior Consultant, Aurel Bacs, sat down with Geneva's Head of Sale, Tiffany To, and our Worldwide Head of Jewellery, Benoit Repellin, to discuss the discovery. "
