Newport-style Tall Clock
Woodworker: J. Albert Hudson
Hudson built this reproduction Newport tall clock of fiddleback and crotch Oregon black walnut. The piece features a broken-arch top with carved capitals and fluted leaf finials, and a block-and-shell carved waist door flanked by fluted quarter columns. The crotch-panel base is chamfered and has lamb’s-tongue corners. The ogee bracket feet feature blind-dovetail miters. The clock has a hand-rubbed oil finish topped with three coats of wipe-on varnish.
