French original Art Deco ATO wooden clock with battery

This is a wonderful wooden mantle or desk clock with great marquetry. These early ATO clocks were very stylized and quite innovative. These are all original battery operated clocks. I have had many over the years, these are NOT digital quartz clock, but original vintage movements. This one has been slightly adapted (and improved I must say), to accommodate the battery in a separate holder that clips on to the original movement mechanism. I have tested it now for months and it works great. I like it. I also like the beautiful wood treatment on this piece, where most of the other ATO clocks I’ve had, tend to be more streamline and glass.
