Time Innards

Tuesday 29th March 2005 - Day 101

A request to see more of the clock featured on Sunday... this sowed a seed of an idea. It is a lovely Clockwork Mantle clock, so instead of showing it all at once, it is worthy of a slow reveal, I feel.

I won't be posting the chime though... Ding Dong.

Thanks to Ann for the idea

I spent 4 hours yesterday with an 87 year old man who is a certified watchmaker. When he spoke about the inner workings of "timepieces", his eyes shown and you could sense the pride he took and the artistry of what he did with hand-made drill bits too small to be seen without magnification. He would love your image, Lee. I'm going to send him this link. This is beautiful.

The tones of the metal are great, as is the crisp detail.
Guest 30-Mar-2005 10:32

Very pretty. When I read the word "innards" I didn't want to look. Such delicate work in this--how old is this clock?

Beautiful innards. This is some mantle clock you've got there,Lee. I'm glad it's a slow reveal...that means we'll see more of this beautiful clock. I'm glad you like my idea!

Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes on its face
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind....

Gonna, be singing it for hours now...love this shot Lee. Voting.
