This German made, Maelzel style Metronome has seen better days. A fully mechanical device from around the 1950’s, based off a patent from the early 1800’s, this metronome has probably sat above an old piano gathering dust for quite awhile, not keeping time. In this video, I touch on some of the history and functions of the this antique, as well as explaining some of the techniques used to restore it such as polishing, staining and applying shellac in a way similar to French Polishing.
