Description
This garden wall clock pairs a classic Roman numeral face with two small weather dials, a thermometer and a hygrometer, so one piece on the wall tells you the time, the temperature and the humidity. The round frame is plastic in a soft blue with a gently weathered look, around a crisp white face where open white Roman numerals stand clear of the background. Black hands with decorative spade tips sweep from a raised white centre and are easy to read across a room. At 44.6cm across and 5.4cm deep, it is a generous size that fills a wall without crowding it.
We like it most in rooms that look out on the garden: a conservatory, a garden room, a kitchen by the back door or a boot room where the wellies wait. The thermometer and hygrometer let you keep an eye on how warm and how humid the room is, which is handy where seedlings are started on a windowsill or houseplants share the space. Its size suits a wide stretch of wall above a dresser, a dining table or a sideboard, and the blue frame sits happily with cream walls, natural wood and painted country furniture.
The clock keeps time with a quartz movement that takes one AA battery, fitted at the centre of the back. A hanging bracket at the top of the back means a single sturdy hook or screw is all it needs, and at 5.4cm deep it sits close to the wall. The face sits behind a glazed front, so a wipe with a soft, dry cloth keeps it clear, and the frame needs no more than a dust now and then. Hang it at eye level so the two dials are easy to read. Team it with a few potted herbs or a jug of garden flowers for a relaxed country feel. It makes a welcome present too.
