New Year's has gone by and I just took down the ornaments off the tree and that is just the beginning of putting away Christmas goodies for the both of us. And I must say this makes me a little sad but it must be done. And now I have read a couple of post with the words Valentines Day already! I cant believe the time goes by so fast! I have a luv of antique clocks weather they are running or not. I always look forward to winding them up and enjoying the sound of the chimes as they count the hours.
Here are my favorites from the couple we have. The one above was a Christmas gift a couple years back from Ray and the one below was a find at a shop. They are both Art Nouveau I luv the one on the top photo it reminds me of a mermaid they date from 1895-1910. And have a great tone to them as they strike the hour.
This one I bought because she seems to be trying to get the latest gossip with her hand up to her ear. " LOL"
Next time I will take some closer pics of the little mermaid collection I have below the clock on the left side of the photo. I hope you enjoyed our little treasures. Until next time I wish you all a beautiful weekend..................Julian Today I will be linking in for some fun show and tell blog parties over at

They both are gorgeous. I do love the sound of my clock chiming or the church bells in the neighborhood ringing!

Oh what beautiful clocks!! I love them! Too funny about the girl listening to gossip lol! You have such great treasures!!! Thanks for sharing this at Feathered Nest Friday! :)
ReplyDeleteI have never seen such beautiful clocks! We have a collection of chiming clocks, too, but they are all wooden and not at all charming. (Though I do love to hear them chime, too!)
ReplyDeleteThose are really awesome clocks! I too wish time would slow down just a tiny bit. I think this year has taken off as fast as the last one!
ReplyDeleteTake care, Sue
I love those deco clocks, gorgeous! Wish I could find some of those. They are works of art. judy
ReplyDeleteYour clocks are fab. I love to hear ticking and chiming it's very soothing. I can here the church clock chiming from my sitting room,can't see the dial so I have to listen to the quarter chimes.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you both.
Hugs,Angela.
These are really wonderful! I always love seeing your gorgeous collections, thanks for linking up with VIF!!

ReplyDeleteAnd yes i'm one of the guilty ones! I posted those words "Valentines Day" with a picture of a couple of ornaments I made for the occasion. I'm also working on Easter. My little christmas Feather tree went down day after christmas, now my Easter feather tree will be coming out.
