A finishing touch that tells the time

A mantel or table clock is part decoration, part useful object. This range gives you Art Deco, mid-century and retro carriage shapes to rest on a shelf, mantel or desk, so a quick glance tells you the hour while the piece earns its spot on display. The smaller shapes slip easily onto a desk, while the bigger forms draw the eye as the main thing on a shelf.

Shapes for the shelf

Rectangular, round, square and curved-front forms mean there is a profile to suit a wide mantel or a narrower ledge. The smaller shapes sit neatly on a study desk or bedside, while the larger forms hold their own as a centrepiece on a living room shelf. The curved-front shapes soften a run of straight lines, and the rectangular builds line up tidily against a wall.

Dials with a bit of character

Several clocks keep a clean, classic face, while skeleton dials and exposed moving cogs put the workings on show for those who like a more mechanical look. Each gives the front a different feel, from restrained to busy and intricate, so you can lean plain or detailed depending on the room.

Finishes to match the room

Polished aluminium, matt black, brass, antique brass and nickel cover warm and cool tones alike. Pick a finish that picks up on nearby frames, lamps or hardware so the clock reads as part of the scheme rather than an afterthought.

Where they sit best

A mantel clock anchors the middle of a shelf above a fireplace, flanked by a pair of candlesticks or framed prints. A table clock suits a desk or bedside where you want the time within easy reach, and the paperweight shapes sit low enough to read at a glance. Free UK delivery over £99, worldwide shipping.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a mantel clock and a table clock?

Both are freestanding clocks meant to rest on a surface rather than hang on a wall. Mantel clocks are shaped to sit centrally on a shelf or above a fireplace, while table clocks suit a desk or bedside where you want the time close to hand.

What dial styles are available?

Several clocks keep a clean, classic face, and others use skeleton dials or exposed moving cogs that put the workings on show. Shapes include rectangular, round, square and curved-front forms.

What finishes do the clocks come in?

Finishes span polished aluminium, matt black, brass, antique brass and nickel, covering both warm and cool tones. Choosing one that echoes nearby frames, lamps or hardware helps the clock sit with the rest of the room.

Where is the best place to put a mantel clock?

A mantel clock works well in the middle of a shelf above a fireplace, balanced by candlesticks or framed prints on either side. The smaller shapes also suit a study desk or a bedside ledge.
