Case:
Clock case has been made in solid American Toulipier wood. First Mr. Carlo used the carving machine to cut off the not needed part of solid wood and then Mr. Franco hand carved the 4 floral columnar caps to the central portion and then the 4 columnars on top and bottom part. Also the top rich carved decoration and the ones at the very bottom. Finely we did a nice softly glasspaper sending, in order to permit an accurate water based medium Walnut finish all over interior and exterior. Mr. Stefano did a great finishing half shiny because of the many parts of wood desassambled before polishing, assembled by screwing them eachother during the movement testing period. Some Tanganika details plated over mdf too. Mr. Giovanni Casella did a nice hand bevelled 5mm thick glass all around in top and even more brass leaded in the bottom glass too. The top wide arch allows the moon phase dial to stand out and to show the moon position dayly movement. Knowing the next full moon was used for travelling night time too. 2 door locks and the clock top part around the dial may slide out/taken off to the front fully for an easy access to the movement package.
