Pendulum Clock

A pendulum clock is a type of timepiece that utilizes the oscillating motion of a swinging weight, known as a pendulum, to measure and display the passage of time. The regular back-and-forth movement of the pendulum activates gears within the clock mechanism, causing the hands to move and indicate the hours and minutes. Pendulum clocks were once widely used in homes and public buildings, but have since been largely replaced by more accurate and convenient electronic devices. Despite this, they remain popular among collectors and enthusiasts for their classic design and historical significance.
