The clock is Swedish and made from Swedish pine with the original blue paint as well as the authentic patina from the 18th century. The patina has naturally developed through the years to the irreplaceable charm it has today with different tones in the paint and genuine antique character. A well crafted detail is the hand wrought hardware and hasp in iron on the doors. This type of clock with a rectangular clock face are the earliest models.
