Seiko Vera Wang Skeleton Mantel Clock

This is a contemporary mantel clock designed by Vera Wang for Seiko. The clock features a characteristic semicircular or arch-topped 'domino' shape with a bright gold-tone or brass-plated metal frame. A primary design element is the transparent crystal casing that reveals the inner skeletonized movement, showcasing the intricate golden gears and mechanical workings. The dial is a minimalist silver-toned ring with black Roman numeral hour markers and sleek black hands. Below the dial, the 'VERA WANG' and 'SEIKO' logos are visible on the base of the glass. The base is tiered and polished, reflecting the surrounding light. In terms of condition, the item appears to be in used but fair condition; there are noticeable surface scratches and minor scuffs on the top of the metal arch and fingerprints on the glass, though no major structural damage or deep corrosion is evident. The craftsmanship represents a collaboration between fashion design and mass-market horology, likely dating from the early 2000s. It utilizes a battery-powered quartz movement designed to mimic the appearance of a traditional mechanical escapement.
