This table clock, created by Jan Janse Boekelts around 1600-1625, is a striking example of Dutch craftsmanship. The clock's intricate design features a square base with an ornate, engraved silver dial and a delicate floral motif. The clock's face is adorned with Roman numerals, intricate floral engravings, and a small, circular inner dial. The clock's design reflects the craftsmanship of the Dutch Golden Age, where clock making became an art form. This diminutive yet intricately detailed piece is a testament to the artistry of the period.
Comments
Usually a table clock is housed in a case in order to protect the movement from dust and dirt. Without a case, it becomes clear that it is an extremely refined object of vertu. The work thus had not only a practical function, but was meant to be picked up and admired from all sides.
