- Hood - In longcase clocks, the hood is the wooden case that surrounds the works and dial, and includes the glass front, which is usually hinged, so the door can be opened to wind the clock or adjust the time. In 18th and 19th century longcase clocks the hood usually slides forward for removal, allowing access to the works.
- Foliate - Decorated with leaves or leaf-like forms.
- Date Aperture - A date aperture is a cut out section in the face of a watch or clock, displaying the day of the month.
