I’m going to have a hard time selling this one. At 7.5” wide by 15” tall, this stunning sandy-pink bookmatched clock is a sight to behold. Bookmatching is a technique used in woodworking and stonework where two or more pieces are cut from the same, in this case, stone and arranged to create a symmetrical, mirror-like pattern.  Imagine a stone being cut in half and then opened like a book. In this case, the stones have vertical striations creating a sense of both symmetry and asymmetry with the live edge naturally differing from left to right. a black epoxy stripe down the center delineates between the two stones and gives it balance.

The clock features custom Godwood "flame" shaped hands and diamond stylized numbers at 12, 3, 6 and 9, all in black. the weeping willow style bonsai tree is offset to the right side, with the trunk flame painted. Flame painting is a unique art form that can take copper and transform it into a colorful masterpiece using a blowtorch to discolor the copper into many vibrant hues. The dangling leaves are further blackened using liver of sulfur, giving the tree enormous depth.
