This bundle includes the beautiful chippendale mantle clock, photos, patterns, instructions and FREE US shipping. The clock measures a full 23" high x 11" wide and 5" deep. It was expertly reproduced from solid alder and includes the alder, molded bombay sides and shelf as shown. Truly a piece that will be the center of attention wherever it is placed. Clock works are not included as there are just too many different styles to choose from to complement this unique piece.
We look at Victorian Chippendale Techniques for inspiration to paint this clock. The small naval scene idea came from old English dial or clock face painting. It is a nice surprise in the floral garden. The clock is made of alder.
