Description
This open ring table or wall clock pairs a tall column of warm brown wood with a slim gold-tone ring that frames the hours without a dial face to fill it. The ring sits around the wooden column, so you see the wall or the room through it, and twelve small dark markers around its edge take the place of numbers. Long gold-tone hands, each with a fine dark line down its centre, sweep across the grain of the wood from a single central point. It is made from wood and steel and measures 34cm tall, 27.5cm wide and 7cm deep.
As a table clock it stands on its rectangular wooden base, which suits a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a bookshelf or a desk in a study or home office. On a wall, it gives a hallway, living room or bedroom a clean, open timepiece that leaves plenty of the wall on view. The warm brown wood sits comfortably with oak, walnut and mid-century furniture, while the gold-tone ring and hands bring a soft glint to a pale, simple scheme. It makes a thoughtful new home gift for someone moving into their first place or somewhere new, since a clock is one of the first things a fresh room needs.
The clock runs on one AA battery, so there is no cable to hide and you can place it wherever it looks best, well away from a socket. Its flat wooden base gives it a firm footing, and the open ring keeps the whole design light to the eye. To care for it, dust the wood and the ring with a soft dry cloth, and keep it away from direct heat and damp so the wood stays at its best. For a housewarming, wrap it with a card for the new address, or set it on a sideboard beside a lamp and a few favourite books.
