Description
This is a Napoleon-style mantel clock with a rounded, humped profile and a wide stepped base. It measures 44.3cm wide, 9cm deep and 20.5cm high, and weighs around 1.76kg. The body is made from aluminium finished in deep satin black, while the round dial carries a crisp white face, traditional black Roman numerals and slim antique gold accents around the bezel. It runs on 1 x AA battery, which is not included, so there are no cords or plugs to hide.
The broad, low shape suits a mantelpiece, a console table or a wide shelf where it has room to sit as a centrepiece. We like it in a period-style sitting room paired with brass candlesticks and framed prints, though the matt black finish keeps it grounded enough for a more pared-back modern room too. Set it against a light wall so the white dial and gold ring stand out, or group it with books and a small lamp on a hallway console. It works with warm woods, dark painted joinery and neutral tones alike.
The clock is built on a smooth aluminium base with a matt black coating that resists shine and fingerprints. The domed top and moulded plinth are shaped to echo classic carriage clock styling, while the glass-fronted dial protects the hands and face. To care for it, dust the body and glass with a dry soft cloth, and avoid damp cloths or sprays that could mark the matt surface. Keep it away from direct heat and humidity, and replace the AA battery when the hands slow. Wipe the gold bezel gently to keep it looking clean.
