Description
This arched mantel clock brings a traditional look to a shelf or fireplace, with a dark walnut finish in a rich brown and a clear Roman numeral dial. The case rises to a rounded arch with a small ledge on each shoulder, then steps down through a panelled front to a moulded base on squared feet. The cream dial sits within a gold-coloured rim, with black Roman numerals, a fine minute track and slim black hands that read easily from across the room. It stands 27.5cm tall, 21cm wide and 9cm deep, a proportion that suits most mantelpieces and deep shelves without crowding them.
At 9cm deep it sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a bookcase or a hall console, and the rich brown finish settles in well with traditional rooms, period homes and warm, wood-toned schemes. We like it in a sitting room or a study, where a clock you can glance at from your chair earns its place. Because it stands on its own feet, it needs no wall fixing and can move from room to room as you rearrange. For anyone who prefers a classic clock face to a digital display, it makes a considered gift that will be used every day.
The dark walnut finish has a soft sheen that picks out the moulding on the base and the shaped panel beneath the dial, while the gold-coloured rim adds a touch of warmth against the deep brown. Care is simple: dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep polish and sprays away from the finish. Set it a little back from the edge so it sits steady, and complete a classic mantelpiece with a pair of candlesticks or a few framed family photographs either side.
