Religious Theme Dome Mantle Clock With Pendulum Appraisal

Religious Theme Dome Mantle Clock with Pendulum

This item is a decorative mantle or table clock encased within a clear glass dome, featuring a strong religious theme. The clock exhibits a mechanical pendulum with four rotating crystal-like elements at its base, creating a kinetic display. The overall structure appears to be constructed from plastic components, likely silver-toned plastic for the structural elements within the dome and a white plastic base. The clock face itself is white with black Arabic numerals (1-12) and displays a central image of hands clasped in prayer, set against an open Bible. The brand name 'Wim' is visible above the '12' position. Silver-colored ornate finials adorn the top and sides of the clock frame, enhancing its decorative appeal. The base of the clock is a circular, off-white or cream-colored band, decorated with religious motifs including a cross, an open Bible, and praying hands, repeated around its circumference. A thin silver-colored line separates the main body of the base from its bottom edge. The item appears to be in good, used condition with no visible significant damage, cracks, or repairs, though minor surface wear consistent with age and previous use might be present. The clear glass dome is intact. The item reflects a 'kitsch' or decorative religious aesthetic, likely dating from the late 20th century to early 21st century. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced decorative items, characterized by molded plastic and printed decals.
