Case:
Ohh really many pieces of wood hand carved by Mr. Franco on solid French Lime wood applied to a solid case made of solid American Toulipier wood and some Tanganika burl plated over back side mdf. Some thin details on the doors have been carved by Mrs. Angelica over solid Italian Walnut wood. Finely hand carved very deeply detailled side statues that have been first machine grosscarved by Mr. Carlo. We join all together each piece during assembling after the polishing, testrunning period is about 15 days for setting all the movement accessories. Side and front oval all around bevelled glass 5mm thick manually by Mr. Giovanni. Back side is also full of hand made carvings applied because originally this model had no doors but we had to improve it and put the lock to the bottom door too. Really accurate water based light ivory lacquer hand made by our Mr. Stefano and before the mat transparent final protection clock case has been fully “aquerello” hand painted by the artist Mrs. Lara as per a Giotto's picture. A lot of labour for getting ready the many parts componing the clock case. No high tech machinery but simply the very different skills of many our workers and friends put together once. Top door has the metric hinges in order to being secure lifetime and the full top part of the clock after unscrewing from the back side it may slide to the front as per a big drawer.
