Open Ring Wood and Steel Table or Wall Clock 34cm - Black

This open ring wall clock can stand on its own base or hang on the wall. Its round frame leaves the centre clear, so you see straight through to whatever sits behind it. A slim black ring carries short white baton markers at the hours, and fine white hands turn from a narrow upright column that runs down through the middle to a solid rectangular foot. It is made from wood and steel in a glossy black, and it measures 34cm tall, 27.5cm wide and 7cm deep. That size reads clearly across a room without crowding a shelf.

At 7cm deep it settles easily on a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a hallway console or a desk. On a wall it keeps the same open look, with the ring framing a patch of paint or wallpaper rather than a solid dial. The black finish sits well against white, grey or pale wood. Because you read the time from the hands and markers alone, the open design keeps a small living room, bedroom or home office from feeling cluttered. It makes a thoughtful housewarming gift for someone setting up home, or for anyone who likes a clean, modern clock that is easy to read at a glance.

The clock runs on one AA battery, so there is no cable to hide and you can place it wherever it looks best. It is built from wood and steel and stands on a broad rectangular foot that sits flat on a shelf or sideboard. To keep the glossy black looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, which can dull a polished surface. For a simple arrangement, stand it a little off centre on a mantelpiece with a candle or a short stack of books beside it, and let the open ring do the rest.
