Description
Our large skeleton wall clock brings an open-worked, mechanical look to a wall, with an exposed face that lets the frame and hands stand out against whatever sits behind it. Finished in an antique brass tone across the metal, it carries a warm, aged shine rather than a bright polish, so it reads as something with a little history to it. The Roman numerals sit around the outer ring, while the openwork centre reveals the structure of the piece and gives it depth. At 100x100cm it is a genuinely large wall clock, so allow plenty of clear wall around it.
This size works well above a fireplace, on a landing, in a hallway or as the focal point of a living room where a big blank wall needs anchoring. The brass tone pairs happily with dark painted walls, exposed brick or neutral plaster, and it sits comfortably alongside both period features and more pared-back interiors. Keep the surrounding decor simple so the openwork detail has room to breathe, and hang it at eye level where the numerals stay easy to read.
A quartz movement keeps time accurately and runs on a single battery, so there is no winding or pendulum to maintain. The metal frame is sturdy but the clock is large, so fix it to a secure wall fitting rated for the weight. To care for it, dust the frame and numerals gently with a dry soft cloth, working around the open sections, and avoid damp cloths or sprays that could dull the antique brass finish over time.
