    when I first saw the word "death clock", I thought it was a clock that slowly counted down how many years you had left to live based on the average human life expectancy. Something you could look at to remind yourself of your own mortality.

    I collect French antiques and my whole house is furnished with antique Louis XVI furniture, as well as Napoleon III and other styles. Please remember that ormolu is gilded bronze, not brass. Rick is quite right when he's talking about this clock. And if you think the price is way off, the value of an antique clock is determined by who made the clock - you can't say every antique clock like this is valued at 4k.

  • @RollaArtis
    @RollaArtis 14 років тому

    I would like to make some corrections; -
    1) The clock case of C. 1850 was cast in a sand mould (made from a wooden pattern) and then hand finished.
    2) The mercury amalgam was painted on as thinly as possible because gold happens to be valuable.
    3) The gilders didn't sit around breathing in the vapour, they knew of the dangers.
    4) But he 's right in pointing out that contrary to popular American belief, things like this can in fact be made without reaching for the box of power tools.
