ABOUT PRODUCTID 38200
This German travel clock by HAU, dating from the early 20th century, exemplifies transitional craftsmanship bridging the late 19th century and early modernism. Its compact, rectangular case is crafted from polished brass in a warm golden-yellow tone, featuring softly rounded edges that lend the form a gentle, approachable character. The highly reflective brass surface reveals an authentic patina and subtle traces of use, typical of a well-traveled object. The dial, finished in a similar nuanced gold with a faint gradient, displays clear black Arabic numerals and classic black spade hands. Above the center sits a subsidiary alarm dial, operated by a lighter, silver-toned alarm hand. The convex glass protects the face, where the manufacturer’s signature is visible. A fixed, elegantly curved brass handle atop the case underscores the portable intent, while four low, rounded feet provide stability. The clock remains in good condition with natural patina, minor scratches, and gentle signs of age, but no major damage or evidence of restoration.This clock embodies the spirit of an era when travel was an emblem of modernity and every detail was intended to serve both function and the quiet aesthetics of daily rituals. The warm brass glow and softened corners suggest a care for comfort even on the move. Patina and subtle traces of time lend the piece depth, evoking memories of softly lit mornings and the punctual chime of the alarm—almost as if the clock is ready for its next journey and a new owner.Within an interior, this clock can be placed on a sideboard or desk
