For sale is a wonderfulAntique Art Deco Machine Age Desk or Mantel Clock known as the General Electric or GE Breton, designed by John Rainbault in 1937. The clock face is glass with etched numerals and center design sitting on a stepped metal base. The base lights up when plugged in by the button on the back of the base; bulb not included.
Condition Revised ... The clock itself is not working and is missing its hour hand. There is some wear to the reverse side of the glass panel.Also, you'll notice the glass leans slightly looking at it from the side; looking inside the base, one side where the screw secures the glass is broken or chipped on one side of the screw (see next to last photo). The other side looks fine, no breaks.Cord replaced at some point and should be rewired; has a vintage bakelite plug.
Marked for GE on the face and the back of the clock. It stands 7-1/4" tall with the clock face itself measuring approx 6" x 5"; the base measures 8" wide by 3-5/8" deep.
