Description
This round glass wall clock carries a black line portrait of a cool 60s film icon on a crisp white face. He gazes out from beside the centre in a collared jacket, hair swept back, while bold black numerals run all the way around the edge in a classic serif style and slim silver hands mark the hours and minutes. The clock measures 30cm across and only 2cm deep, so it sits close to the wall rather than jutting into the room. Keeping to black and white makes it clear to read at a glance and easy to live with day to day.
At 30cm across, it is large enough to read from the far side of a living room yet neat enough for a hallway, a landing or the wall above a desk in a home office. The monochrome design suits grey, white and black schemes and sits happily alongside framed film posters, vintage prints, a shelf of records or a cinema corner in a den. It works just as well in a games room or a bedroom with a retro feel, and the clean lines stop it from crowding a wall that already holds pictures. We think it reads as a quiet nod to the golden age of the big screen, a picture you can also tell the time by.
The face is glass with a glazed finish, and the black clock movement sits at the back with a keyhole slot at the top, so it hangs from a single screw or picture hook. It runs on one AA battery, which fits into the movement behind the face. To keep it looking its best, dust the glass with a soft dry cloth and wipe away any marks with a slightly damp cloth, drying it afterwards. Hang it at eye level on a clear stretch of wall and let the portrait do the talking.
