Arched Pendulum Wooden Mantel Clock with Black Hands - White

This arched wooden mantel clock pairs a clean white dial with black hands and a round black pendulum, all held within a natural wood frame that curves over the top and runs down to the surface in two straight legs. The dial carries no numerals: twelve small raised white markers note the hours, so the face reads simply and calmly from across the room. Beneath it, the pendulum hangs on a slim pale rod in the open space between the legs, a nod to the traditional mantel clock in a lighter, more modern form. It measures 25.3cm tall, 15.5cm wide and 6.1cm deep.

At that height it sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, a bookshelf, a sideboard or a desk, and its slim depth means it settles onto a narrow shelf without crowding it. The white, black and natural wood palette suits pale Scandinavian-style rooms and minimalist schemes alike, and it is just as at home in a study or home office, where a quick glance at an uncluttered dial is all you need. Because it is freestanding, there is no drilling and no wall space to find: set it down where you want it and move it whenever you rearrange the room.

The clock runs on one AA battery, which fits into the movement at the back, so there is no winding and no plug to find near the shelf. The wooden frame keeps its warm edge on show, a soft contrast to the crisp white dial. To care for it, dust with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp and direct heat, as you would any wooden piece. For a simple arrangement, set it centred on a mantelpiece between a pair of candlesticks, or at the end of a desk beside a stack of books, and let the black hands and pendulum pick up the other dark accents in the room.
