Description
This round glass wall clock carries a bold black portrait of a 1950s crooner, hat tipped low and tie neatly knotted, set against a clean white face. The print sweeps up from the lower left, with his fedora brushing the top of the dial, while the right of the face stays open and bright so the time reads clearly. Full numerals from 1 to 12 run around the edge, black on the white and white where they cross his dark suit, and slim silver hour and minute hands turn from the centre. It measures 30cm across and just 2cm deep, a comfortable size for a wall where you want a picture and a clock in one.
With its strong black and white graphic, this clock suits a living room, a hallway, a study or a music corner, anywhere the look leans towards old film posters and vinyl records. The slim profile sits close to the wall, so it works above a sideboard, a record player or a desk without crowding the space. It pairs easily with monochrome prints, chrome, dark wood or a plain painted wall, and the white face keeps it light enough for a smaller room or a narrow landing.
The face is glass with a glazed finish that gives the print a smooth, glossy look. Behind it sits a compact movement that runs on one AA battery, with a keyhole slot at the top so the clock hangs from a single screw or picture hook. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe the glass gently with a slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away. Hang it where the portrait can be seen properly, perhaps beside a framed record sleeve or a vintage print, and it will keep time while setting the tone of the room. It makes a characterful gift too.
