The piece I received is absolutely gorgeous!!! Tristan Wier is a master of his craft and business.

I couldn’t be happier! Tristan answered me almost immediately or within the hour with my questions and explained everything in detail. This man has a great eye for history, detail, customer satisfaction and overall obviously loves what he does. I’m very impressed by the entire transaction.
I tip my hat sir. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
My husband will love this for our 1 year wedding anniversary!!!! I was working other jobs while running a clock repair business from home.
My wife, who is an artist, was talking about how she was putting some of her pieces on a new site called Etsy. After I saw how it worked and the responses she was receiving from all over the world I asked if she wouldn't mind putting a couple of my clocks on site. Within 24hrs the first one sold!This went on for awhile, and we decided I needed to open up my own shop.
I immediately went to work, loading pieces from home to the shop, conversing with potential customers, and I didn't even have a banner on the storefront yet.Little by little WierClock on Etsy has evolved.and still is!
Contents.Life Very little is known about Widukind's life. His name literally translates as 'child of the wood' (i.e.
A )– more probably a than a proper name. In the chronicles he is accompanied by, they may have some close relation but it is not sure, because all sources about him stem from his enemies, the, who painted a negative picture, representing him as an 'insurgent' and a 'traitor'. While Widukind was considered the leader of the Saxon resistance by the Franks, his exact role in the military campaigns is unknown.According to the, the Franks campaigned in in 772, when Charlemagne ordered the destruction of the sanctuary.
The Saxon Wars continued when tribes devastated the church of and the laid siege to the Frankish court at. The king retaliated against the local nobility, enforcing the decree to incorporate the Saxon lands as a Frankish.Widukind was first mentioned by the Annals in 777, when he was the only one of the Saxon nobles not to appear at Charlemagne's court in. Instead, he stayed with the Danish king (possibly ).
The next year, the Westphalians again invaded the Frankish and subsequently fought a running battle against Charlemagne's forces and their local allies while the king.By 782, Widukind had returned from and goaded the Saxon nobles into rebellion. From 782 to 784, battles between Saxons and Franks occurred annually, while Charlemagne had 4,500 Saxons executed at the.
Widukind allied himself with the but Charlemagne's winter attacks of 784/785 were nevertheless successful, and the dux and his allies were pushed back to their homelands. In the in 785, Widukind agreed to surrender in return for a guarantee that no bodily harm would be done to him. He and his allies were then baptized, possibly in, with Charlemagne as his. Widukind thereby reached a peace agreement and the acknowledgement of the Saxon noble rank by their Frankish overlords.There are no contemporary sources about Widukind's life or death after his baptism. Historian Gerd Althoff assumed that he was imprisoned at a —a fate that happened to other rulers deposed by Charlemagne. He tried to identify as a likely location where Widukind may have spent the rest of his life, but his results are inconclusive and widely rejected.
Alternatively, he may have received a position in the administration of occupied Saxony. The Vita Liudgeri biography of Saint mentions him accompanying Charlemagne on his campaign against the leader.
According to the 12th-century, he was slain by Charlemagne's brother-in-law.Legend.
