About SHMILY

Honoring Time Through Restoration

Intrigued by the history of our nation dating back to colonial times, I began restoring historic buildings and articles of antiquity in 1974. Recognizing that our history is contained in the treasures around us, I found that my effort to preserve, restore, and revitalize these items was both rewarding and satisfying as an integral part of my life. These activities gave me a sense of accomplishment and the knowledge that a piece of history can live on for others to experience was inspiring and compelled me to continue.

Over the years I began to realize that I was drawn to time and the devices constructed to measure it.
From the simplistic to the complex, English, German, French, American, the variations were endless. With a background in fine cabinetry, woodworking and mechanical repairs, it was natural to become involved in the restoration, repair and servicing of these devices. As a Horologist, I have found my purpose, it is important to me and to others, and contributes to the preservation of history on both a personal and a national level.

“The flow of sand in an hourglass can be used to measure the passage of time. It also concretely represents the present as being between the past
and the future”.
