from trash to treasure.
When we bought this clock in Germany it was painted blue. If I remember right we paid $5. for it. It took lots of work to get it back to the original wood especially the tiny bead work down the sides. The face was all scratched so I painted the metal and numbers. We have several clocks that I plan on sharing for the next few weeks. This one has a beautiful deep bong. Unfortunately it has to hang crooked to keep running.

The crookedness adds to its charm!
Oh, that is a beauty. I have always been a fan of keeping wood as is and not painting it. However, now I find myself wanting to paint a few pieces. I love your clock, and I think it is nice you restored it back to its glory!! Happy VTT!
oh my hard to believe it was ever blue! great job. and what a memory of buying it in Germany!
I cannot believe you found that clock at that price regardless of the condition. You have worked wonders with it. Looks great now.
You really did a great job on this, I never knew it was once blue! Who knew!
