Recently, after seeing some of Gorg's work elsewhere, my husband was contacted by a man looking for a backwards movement clock. He also wanted to have the checkerboard pattern of the Bavarian flag carved into the face. For those of you who are unfamiliar with a backwards clock, the numbers (going clockwise) count down from twelve instead of up to twelve. The hands move counter-clockwise to read the time.

And the completed clock made out of Cherry with carved checkerboard pattern and carved numbers with a black finish....
Pretty nice, don't you think?
Yay! I'm sure Peter loved it! It looks fabulous.
