Vintage Dutch “Hindeloopen” hand painted wall clock.
This clock, which I guess dates from the fifties, always worked perfectly until I hung it in another room. It needs to be completely level and as my walls are old kauri sarking that seems to be hard to achieve. It may also need a bit of a clean. The clock is hand painted which originated in a Dutch village called Hindeloopen. It works by pulling up the brass weights . That is why the clock should be positioned fairly high on the wall. If you want to make an offer , please PM or TEXT me on 0272484333 ( I don’t expect a large amount of money)😂
