Description
This miniature mantel clock takes the form of a traditional food mixer, made in metal and finished in a glossy beige. The clock face sits on the side of the mixer head, framed in bright silver, with a white dial, clear Arabic numerals and black hands, and the word QUARTZ printed beneath the centre. Below the head, a pair of beaters reaches down into a silver mixing bowl that rests on the flat base, and silver details pick out the knob, the trim band and the handle along the top. It stands 8cm tall, 7.3cm across and 4.5cm deep, small enough to sit in the palm of your hand.
Because it is so small, this clock fits where a full-sized one would crowd the space: a kitchen shelf, a narrow windowsill, a bedside table or the end of a mantelpiece. On a desk it keeps the time in easy view without taking over, and beside cookery books or vintage kitchenware it looks right at home. The analogue dial with its Arabic numerals is easy to read at a glance, and the retro mixer design brings a touch of fun to any room that could do with a little character. We think it suits a modern kitchen just as well as a cosy cottage one.
The quartz movement runs on one LR66 battery, and the battery is included, so the clock is ready to set from the start. The metal body has a glossy finish that catches the light, and the silver parts give it the look of a real kitchen machine in miniature. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft, dry cloth and keep it away from water. Freestanding on its flat base, it needs no wall and no fixings, so you can move it from room to room. Tucked into a gift bag, it makes a cheerful little present.
