Glasgow clock

Glasgow clock, scroll saw fretwork pattern of a late victorian art nouveau modernist pendulum timepiece

  This is a late art nouveau English design pendulum clock. Its discreet and elegant curves give it an attractive aspect, emphasized by the modernist floral motifs overlays. It is a quite simple clock to make, adequate for the intermediate scroller, even for the beginner. The pattern is completely redrawn after a very old English design.

  The picture shown was sent by Boris Radovskiy from the United States. He has used mahogany, hard maple, walnut and excellent craftsmanship to obtain this striking result. He is a member of the Carolina Scrollers club.

  The clock is designed to be made preferably with 1/8, 1/4 and 3/8 inches wood or with 3, 6 and 9 mm. wood. The main size is 1/4 inches wood or 6 mm. wood. The following table gives the measures of the clock depending on the wood width you use:
