Description
This miniature metal mantel clock puts a whole film set on a small oval base: a clapperboard with a working clock in its face, an old cine camera on its stand and a director's chair beside it. The clapperboard reads PROD.NO., SCENE, TAKE and ROLL across its black face, edged in silver, and the striped clapper arm along the top lifts up just like the real thing. The clock sits in a square black surround with a white dial and clear black numbers from 1 to 12, so the time reads easily at a glance. It stands 5.4cm high, 9.7cm wide and 4.9cm deep.
Its size makes it a natural fit for places where a full clock would crowd things: a desk beside the keyboard, a bookshelf among films and novels, a bedside table or the mantelpiece itself. In a home cinema room or a lounge set up for film nights, it adds a playful touch that ties the theme together without taking over. Because it stands on its own oval base, it needs no wall and no fixing. It also makes a cheerful gift that is easy to wrap and easy to find a home for.
The piece is made from metal, with black panels set against silver edging and a black base ringed in silver. The clock runs on one LR66 battery, and the battery comes included, so it is ready to set to the right time as soon as it arrives. Dust it gently with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water. The clapper arm and the little chair are fine details, so handle them lightly. For a finishing touch, set it beside a stack of favourite films or next to the popcorn bowl on movie night, and let the little set take its bow.
