Palladium Coffee Table Clock With Moving Cogs - Black & Nickel

The Palladium is a 105cm round coffee table built around a working clock face set beneath a glass top, with exposed mechanical cogs that rotate as the clock runs. The clock mechanism sits in a raised circular drum finished in brushed nickel with radiating sunburst engraving, while four turned finials mark the cardinal positions on the glass perimeter. The cog assembly beneath the clock face turns continuously when batteries are installed, creating visible movement at the table's centre.

Designed for living rooms and lounge spaces where a coffee table doubles as a conversation piece, the Palladium works in industrial, steampunk and contemporary interiors that lean into mechanical detailing. The 51cm height suits standard sofas and armchairs, and the 105cm diameter provides surface area for drinks, remotes and books around the central clock. The cross-braced metal frame in matt black powder coat gives structural rigidity and a 19.7kg weight that keeps the table stable when the glass top is in use.

The clock requires three AA batteries (not included) to power both the hands and the rotating cog mechanism. The glass top is toughened and sits in a recessed rim, preventing it from sliding during normal use. The brushed nickel finish on the clock drum contrasts with the black frame and the etched sunburst pattern on the frosted glass adds texture without obscuring the cog movement beneath. Indoor use only — the mechanism is not sealed against moisture.

How does the clock mechanism work?

The table requires three AA batteries (not included) to power a quartz clock movement and the rotating cog display. The clock hands tell the time while the decorative cogs beneath the face rotate continuously. Battery life depends on the quality of batteries used but typically lasts several months under normal operation.

Is the glass top removable?

Yes. The toughened glass sits in a recessed rim on the metal frame and can be lifted out for cleaning the clock face or replacing batteries in the mechanism below.

What rooms is this suitable for?

The Palladium works best in living rooms, lounges and media rooms with sofas or armchairs at standard seat height. The 51cm height and 105cm diameter suit spaces where the coffee table acts as a centrepiece rather than purely functional surface. Indoor use only.

How is the table cleaned?

Wipe the glass top with standard glass cleaner. The black metal frame can be dusted or wiped with a damp cloth. Avoid getting moisture near the clock mechanism — lift the glass and clean around the clock drum rather than spraying cleaner directly onto it.
