Clock

This object is not so old as the other things at this site but NOT less important. It was bought by my great-grandmother. It was always standing at the mantelpiece. It is very expensive because it is made from oak-wood. We went to Kunst&Kitch with it and they said that is was very antique and it was worth €800,-. The clock must be wind up with a special key. The clock strikes every half-an-hour. Then it gives a very nice sound.
It is set off with copper. When my grandmother dies my uncle inherit it.
