Bagnall tall case clock - work in progress
I am a huge fan of House of Miniatures kits because they can become anything you want - traditional or modern. I stumbled upon the Bagnall clock when I was searching for other House of Miniatures kits and started stalking eBay for a good price. This is a more difficult kit to find.
The assembly is more challenging than other House of Miniatures kits I've put together, but I am taking my time and using Minwax wood filler to smooth any rough edges and mask the seams. So far so good.
I knew it would be perfect for the Haunted Heritage, but I couldn't wait to put it in the parlor just to check the size and positioning. The stained finish will be darker than the natural wood shown here, but I think it will brighten the far corner in this dark-walled room.
It might be a shame to stick it in the corner between the fireplace and The Chair, but I can just imagine hearing the gentle clicks and whirrs of a clock in this room. My grandparents had clocks in their house, and I loved when it was quiet and all you could hear were the subtle sounds of the various clock movements.
