Magro Brothers has said that the winner of the first draw for a Maltese clock, l-Arlogg tal-Lira, is Valentina Saliba from Fgura.
“Hundreds of participants have been submitting their details for the Three Hills Clocks promotion, which is giving customers the chance to win one of the 3 remaining beautiful hand-crafted clocks, l-Arlogg tal-Lira,” the company said.
The clocks, better known as “l-Arlogg tal-Lira” are hand-crafted by dedicated craftsmen and are still made using age-old traditions handed down from generation to generation.
The clocks are made of wood which is plastered with over 20 layers of chalk and then hand-painted and gilded in 24 carat gold leaf. The face of the clock also captures the classic characteristics of this 400 year old tradition with hand painted roman numerals and a unique landscape portraying the beauty of Gozo. Each clock takes over 3 months of intense and passionate labour, a real gem of the past heritage of the islands.
To participate all anybody needs to do is to send any 2 Three Hills Kunserva lids (glass / cans) or tubes by post to ‘Magro Brothers (Foods) Ltd., The Magro Food Village, Xewkija, Gozo XWK 3000. Do not forget to include your name, address and telephone/mobile number.
