[Black paint painted with gold wooden tower clock]

Black paint painted with gold wooden tower clock, where the Qing Dynasty Palace made the clock, the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, with a height of 70 centimeters, a width of 49 centimeters, and a thickness of 33 centimeters. The clock tower is a copper skeleton wood clad structure, with the clock shell imitating Japanese lacquer and painted with gold lacquer plum, bamboo, and chrysanthemum on the black lacquer ground. Open the pavilion door to see the clock dial. The clock dial has the obvious characteristics of the Emperor Qianlong’s clock. The middle circle is painted with yellow enamel of flowers and plants, and the upper half is painted with white enamel with blue edges. Inside, there are four characters in blue regular script, “Made in the Year of Qianlong”. Roman numerals representing time are written on the white enamel time ring. There are three copper clocks clasped in the bell rack at the top of the clock, each with a small hammer attached to it
Every time the clock is announced, the rope connected to the travel time system pulls the two hammers below, ringing the bell one after another, making a “jingle” sound. When the clock is on time, the hammer strikes the top brass bell, making a sound of “dang” and “dang”.
