The 2 columnar caps have been carved by Mr. Franco by hand after that Mr. Carlo had cleaned up the part of wood not need by manual carving machine. The light finish over the solid oak is quite mat uniformed piece per piece slowly by our Mr. Stefano interior and extirior in order to let the clock be such luminous thanks to the 5mm thick bevelled glass by hand even in the very wide top arch by Mr. Giovanni Casella. The back side is mdf that mantains the rest of the solid wood high thicknes fasten all together and it's oak plated and oak refinished on border too. In order to stands out the very sofisticated Kieninger mechanical movement inside, because the clock top part is screwed during the testing periond but it may slide out to the front like a drawer and so leave the clock movement on top of the clock case for inspection and for display to friends.
