Just a quick note - I'm very proud of my clocks, I love designing and making them and want my customers to feel equally proud of their purchase.  It can be difficult to convey the quality of a product online, the feel of the wood, the sound of the ticking and so on.  If you would like to see the clocks you are more than welcome to visit me at my home studio where I have several clocks on display.  To arrange an appointment please contact me before visiting. Thanks Darren

Clock Description

 

Based on the Burrell Showmans Engine this clock was a must build for me as it represents where my clock obsession started. 

The clock is weight driven with time keeping regulated by a swinging pendulum as per traditional clocks first invented in the mid 1600’s.  

The pendulum, swaying with hypnotic grace, ticks away the moments, each swing a symphony of motion and balance.

Other Important Information

Material Variations - Please note that the clock is made using real wood veneers, a naturally occurring material which will vary in tone and grain pattern from piece to piece, therefore, although the same species is used, your clock will not exactly match those displayed in the images and product videos.  Its also worth mentioning that the type of lighting can change the tone of the material, some lighting will make the wood appear darker whilst warm lighting as used in the videos can give a considerably different feel.
