The Multiverse

This piece was designed and crafted as a gift for a wonderful family whom we had the opportunity to meet this past summer when visiting our son at the United States Naval Academy. It was my pleasure to make this beautiful clock for these great American patriots.

Carved of exceptionally beautiful 1 13/16” thick solid American Black Walnut, this sculpted clock measures 28” tall and 18” wide. The clock face is recessed and engraved with the family name. The numbers and markers were carved into the clock face and filled with white resin. The holes are sculpted on both the front of the back of the clock, sparing no effort to ensure the light funnels and shadows look natural and organic.

Side note: the font used on the clock face is American Scribe, a modern digitization of Timothy Matlack’s penmanship from the Declaration of Independence. It’s the same font I used on the front of 1776 Founder’s Edition Humidor.

The clock mechanism is a high-quality quartz mechanism with SILENT operation — No ticking! I used the same C-cell high-torque movement that I used on Stubbornly Persistent Illusion, which hasn’t needed a battery change in more than 4 years of operation!

I loved it so much that I decided to make one for my family as well (shown below)!
