My first part sounds like a fake, my second like an ache, Though my spelling's wrong for both, for goodness' sake. I sparkle golden in a glass and make your spirits dance, Just make sure you get me from the right region of France.

I can measure your time, but I cannot do much else. People use me to describe a figure.

I have a shift, but I do not have a job. I am often seen in offices.

Part of a bucket I may be. You might use me with your tea. Water removed to save a life. A pot suspended by peasants wife.

I replicate a natural form, of that which brews inside a storm. Fill me on-site, hold me just right, and we will sustain life tonight. There's no need to undress, or make a mess...we're doing it all in plain sight!
