About

Each clock has its own history.

Since my childhood it is clear that I have an interest and fascination for antique clocks. That interest that grew into a passion has not left me to this day. Over the years I have been able to increase my knowledge through books and good teachers. I am still learning, because time and time again clocks and timepieces present themselves that are different. There are so many variants and that makes the profession so fascinating.

After completing the vocational school Schoonhoven, I visited a number of interesting internship companies and worked there, which enabled me to develop further.

Now I work as a self-employed person closely with a furniture restorer and a dial and cabinet painter, skilled professionals and specialized in clocks and, if necessary, with other colleagues.

Your clock is in good hands with me, where you can count on expert and careful treatment.

Please feel free to contact me so that I can answer your questions and perhaps arrange a proper repair and/or restoration of your beloved clock for you.
