Shadow Picture Wall Clock

shadowpicture-clocks1.jpg
Call us...well, "cuckoo"...but we never did get that cuckoo clock we always wanted as a kid. So we're still harboring some residual childish fondness for the form and function of the Old World home timepiece. BG Shop of Japan is selling four different styles of a fantasy inspired, battery powered Shadow Picture wall clock that would seem perfectly suited to a Miyazaki film or woodland themed interior. Details below the jump...

Translated: "Cutting the mat black paint was administered to the griddle which was pulled out, it is the wall-mounted pendulum clock quite like the shadow picture. As for two silhouettes of the forest and the castle, you have heard quite once upon a time, like the one scene of grinding story. Like the nostalgic shadow picture, it is the design which is liked from the child to the adult. As for ファンタジー and two of the gardens delicate openwork is beautiful the silhouette whose charm. The pendulum which shakes swingingly cuts the time gently."

Yeah, that's a bit of convoluted Jinglish there (Ellie, help us!). All you have to really know is the clocks take a single battery and costs about $47. No word about international delivery or domestic sources yet...we're looking and will report if we find any sources.

I bought a similar "pendulum" clock on Amazon a while back. It looks very different but the clock mechanism and the back looks very much the same. Unfortunately it doesn't keep the right time, even with fresh batteries. So now I'm totally wary of buying more clocks. Can anyone here attest to this clock's ability to tell time? I would love one.
