Ingrid Hoeben Ⓥ 🇧🇪Net op m'n #vinted geplaatst.. iemand herinnert me aan de thematiek van de dag, en dat het typisch voor mij is om dit vandaag met de uurwissel online te zetten.
Maar ik was me er echt niet van bewust :)

Catherine ZipfI’ve been driving by this cutie for over a decade and just discovered that the round window in the gable is actually a clock!!
I discovered this because my teenager was driving, causing me to look anywhere but the road…

TKSST • seethis.tv 🌈🪐✨⌛🏺 Our modern #clocks rely on a base-60 system created thousands of years ago in #Mesopotamia.
Ancient mathematicians chose 60 because it is divisible by many different numbers. This flexibility made it simple to track the movement of the #stars and divide the day into predictable segments.
Crimperman 🏳️🌈The tables that I upcycled originally had a beautiful glass top and, as one of them hadn't broken, I upcycled that into a clock.
Quite pleased how that's come out.
PAgent 🇺🇦So Howard Miller is apparently a BIG NAME in clocks. George Nelson was a designer with Herman Miller, and Howard Miller clocks designed by Nelson are apparently even more collectible, especially their clocks from the 70s. And finally, the Howard Miller company closed last year, so their clocks will become only more collectible.
Sadly, whoever my dad originally asked to fix it trashed the entire mechanism, and it is unsalvageable. But, an entirely new and genuine mechanism can maybe be bought in Germany.
So, we're going to bite the bullet and try to restore it. I'd love to hear it chime again.
