I blogged about this clock a while back and you can read that post here.
I took the photo at a bit of an angle to try to bring out the gold highlights on the dishes, but it remains elusive.
A few weeks ago, I repaired and reinforced the edge, and replaced the clock mechanism. Then I had to decide what to do with it. It did not feel right to add a used clock to my decor site. My husband suggested donating to his church and we both felt his mother—original owner of the clock but now deceased—would have liked the idea.
So, it traveled to Egypt and back, and will now reside in the Saints Peter and Paul Coptic Orthodox Church. That’s a good resting place for this time traveler.
