That doesn’t look like a piece of bark found in the woods of Vermont. It looks like a piece of cheap paneling found in my Uncle’s basement.
Why the string? Was that a mask where your own nose replaces the man’s nose? And would you want to wear this after the little zig-zaggy bits have been up someone else’s nose?
Did you know that the railroad tracks and embankments are owned by the railroads? Walking along them is trespassing? Removing ANYTHING from this area is THEFT, Dumbass!
Color me clueless, but when people are saying “found objects”, they’re talking about what a normal person would call “trash”, “rubbish”, or… “garbage”… right?
Because this morning was trash day and I’m all out of craft supplies, having put them all on the curb in Hefty Cinch-sacks.
I think it would be way cooler if they cut a hole out of the wood and had the guy’s face behind it so it would give it a bit of dimension. And I suppose it would kind of look like he’s wearing a big square wood helmet. But then again, that would be a lot more work than just slapping a magazine cutout onto a chunk of wood. And effort is for chumps.
For those times when you can’t “See It In a Room”, why not “See It Thrown On the Ground in a Filthy Fucking Alley”? It does seem fitting for this, though.
So those RR fish tie plates are cast iron.
Heavy suckers. No wonder she suggests using a stud finder to hang the clock.
Or it might fall on your head, abrade your skin while ripping your nose off.
Where in the hell am I supposed to hang this? If I put it in the bedroom, I’ll never sleep again. If I put it in the living room, what few friends I have will stop visiting me. I suppose I could put it on the back porch, but it scares me so badly, I’ll never be able to do the laundry again.
PS-I just showed it to my sons, who informed me, in no uncertain terms, that they sure’s hell aren’t putting it in THEIR room.

@ mutajen: I just figured it out – the minute hand’s shadow creates the walleyed illusion. Yay, I solved a mystery! Oh wait… not only am I still looking at this abomination, I’m actually studying it. I need therapy.
I would suggest if the wall clock has number so that it can easily identified the time for the. If that the case, then it would be better. Perhaps, the clock is very unique and I appreciated that. Do you have any wall clock design? I want to see it soon.

Does anyone really know what time it is? Thank you, Chicago.

That guy looks pissed.
“What time is it?”
“Fuck You”

So she found a photo of this man with no nose in the woods… No wait… What the hell are they talking about?

$140 and it doesn’t even come with numbers….

The 10 o’clock eye is a bit lazy.

if I throw chocolate at it and run away do you think it will stop staring at me?

Can I see it in a Na’avi, please?
January 12, 2011 at 1:47 pm
I think we’re missing the important question here…
Are we sure that this isn’t Grace Jones?
And if so, will she kick the shit out of us for talking shit about her tribute clock?
January 12, 2011 at 1:49 pm
Do you think i could get this in Mohogany? Birch won’t really go with my Silence of the Lambs decor.
January 12, 2011 at 1:51 pm
But will the artist do one where one of the hands is John Cena and the other is Daniel Tosh? Inquiring minds want to know…
January 12, 2011 at 2:03 pm
They totally missed the opportunity to say that this was “Seal-ed” with a matte gloss finish.
January 12, 2011 at 2:04 pm
Matte gloss finish for archival purposes… whew… cause you know that thing is sure the be an heirloom

This will help me with my New Year’s resolution to live in the moment and not be so concerned about the time.

I find that both eyes looking in different directions is more disconcerting than the missing nose.
January 12, 2011 at 2:16 pm
Err, I’m thinking someone’s community isn’t very diverse…
January 12, 2011 at 2:23 pm
What time is it? Vitiligo time!

This is the perfect passive aggressive clock to give to my co-worker who can’t be anywhere on time.

Despite it’s nose less, wall eyed, and bacon skin texture, I’m most disturbed by the stupid string. It’s so distracting…
January 12, 2011 at 2:45 pm
I find this strangely compelling. I think I even like it.

Does anyone else find it odd that she goes on and on about the RR ties and fails to mention where the HELL she got the face?
January 12, 2011 at 3:25 pm
No nose and a lazy eye. S-E-X-Y!
January 12, 2011 at 3:30 pm

If I wanted to terrify myself everytime I looked at a clock, I’d plan impending visits with my mother-in-law.
January 12, 2011 at 4:00 pm
I weep when I look at that shop’s offerings, and realize that my family has mistakenly lost a TON of art to the metal recycler. Weep. Weep-weep.
January 12, 2011 at 4:03 pm

“Clocks are signed and numbered on the backside.”
Backside. What backside? He doesn’t even have a whole face.
January 12, 2011 at 5:41 pm
Hey…I recognize that face! It’s from a National Geographic article on the Masai Warriors. I can’t remember the date, but it’s him!
January 12, 2011 at 6:18 pm
hey maybie i should go dumpster diving and just glue random crap together and call it art !

@Badger you could hang it on the front door to keep salesmen from knocking?
January 12, 2011 at 7:37 pm
“bauble |ˈbôbəl|
noun
1 a small, showy trinket or decoration.
• figurative something of no importance or worth.”
I’m assuming her use of the word “baubles” is to be taken in the figurative meaning.

Lonely Saint, you are correct:

Though I don’t think I feel any better knowing that.
January 13, 2011 at 7:14 am
@44 Invader, I think you’re getting negative feedback on your comment because that’s what most of Etsy actually is. You’re giving away trade secrets.
January 13, 2011 at 12:39 pm
i think we’re taking this much too lightly. she’s obviously trying to publicize the tragic syphilis outbreak among masai warriors.
but wtf did she do to the eyes? they look conjugate in the original picture.

It all made sense when I saw she found this in Vermont. It’s from my favorite Robert Frost poem.
“My nose diverged on a yellow wood.”
