Poppy Galvanised Colour Deep Round Wall Clock 22cm - Silver

This round wall clock pairs a crisp white dial with a deep case in a mottled galvanised colour, giving it the honest, workmanlike look of an old ship's porthole or a factory clock. The dial carries every number from one to twelve in large, clear figures, with fine minute marks around the edge and a pair of slim black hands that stand out sharply against the white. It measures 22cm across and 5cm deep, so it reads easily from across a room without crowding the wall. The stepped rim around the face adds a pleasing sense of depth.

Its plain, practical style suits a kitchen, a hallway, a utility room, a study or a home office, and it sits happily in a farmhouse, industrial or coastal scheme where a touch of weathered silver feels at home. The bold numbers make it a sensible choice anywhere the time needs reading at a glance, such as over a kitchen doorway, opposite a desk or at the foot of the stairs. It also makes a thoughtful new home gift, whether for a first flat or a family move, because every home needs a clock and this one suits so many rooms.

The clock runs on one AA battery, so there is no cable to trail to a socket and you are free to hang it wherever the time is most useful. Its deep case stands 5cm proud of the wall, giving it a solid, substantial presence. To keep it looking its best, dust the case and dial with a soft dry cloth now and then, and wipe the case with a lightly damp cloth if it needs more, drying it straight afterwards. Hang it at eye level in the hallway so it is the first thing guests notice, or tie it with a bright ribbon for someone settling into their new home.
