<\/a>\u00d6lsbo Clock in Mj\u00f6b\u00e4cks Church, V\u00e4sterg\u00f6tland, Sweden

It is said to be a figure eight or a rounded female form. Traditionally the cases made in the north of Sweden were tall and thin. Clocks made in the south were shorter and fatter.<\/p>\n
See the urn on top? Urns and fans were popular to top the bonnet.<\/p>\n![\"1834](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.projectsmallhouse.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Frykman-Clock-1.jpg?resize=150%2C500&ssl=1\")
