The arched top of the dial carries a globe between two flower motifs and the words Tempus Fugit, Latin for time flies, while beneath it a silver chapter ring with bold black Roman numerals frames a soft gold centre. Ornate scrollwork fills each corner of the square dial, and black hands with a gold-coloured centre cap read clearly from across the room. It stands 24.5cm tall, 19cm wide and 9.5cm deep, with a stepped base on bracket feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt that size it sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a bookcase shelf or a bedside table, and it suits a traditionally decorated living room, study or hallway as well as a cosy bedroom. The quartz movement keeps steady analogue time without any winding, so it is an easy clock to live with from one day to the next. The Roman numerals and the Tempus Fugit inscription give it the look of a much older bracket clock, and it makes a considered gift for anyone who loves a classic clock face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe front door is hinged at one side and opens with a small gold-coloured knob, so you can reach the dial and hands when they need a gentle clean. The clock runs on one AA battery (MN1500\/LR6), which is not included, so keep one to hand when it arrives. Care is simple: dust the case with a soft dry cloth, and wipe away fingermarks with a barely damp cloth, drying it straight after. Set it at the centre of the mantelpiece between a pair of candlesticks or framed photographs for a classic, balanced look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWalnut\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.107kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMovement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eQuartz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalogue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoman numerals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBatteries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x AA (MN1500\/LR6) (not included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is this mantel clock?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands 24.5cm tall, 19cm wide and 9.5cm deep, a comfortable size for a mantelpiece, a sideboard or a wide shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat battery does the clock take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne AA battery (MN1500\/LR6) powers the quartz movement.
