Rotating Pendulum Mantel Clock with Carry Handle - Gold

This gold mantel clock pairs a classic carriage-style case with a rotating pendulum that turns beneath the dial and catches the eye. The rectangular case has slim gold pillars at each corner, a stepped top and a deep brushed base, with a curved handle across the top for an old-fashioned touch. Clear sides let you see straight through to the round dial, which hangs in the centre of the case. The dial is a pale cream with large black Arabic numerals, fine minute markers and black hands, so the time reads easily from across a room. It stands 21.5cm tall, 14.6cm wide and 7.6cm deep.

At 7.6cm deep it sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, a narrow shelf or the corner of a desk without crowding the space. The warm gold tone suits traditional living rooms with dark wood and soft lighting, yet it also lifts a plain modern shelf. In a study or a home office it keeps the hours in view while you work, and on a bedroom chest of drawers or a hallway console it gives a visitor something pleasing to see. Because it stands freely, it needs no wall fixings, and the handle makes it easy to move from room to room.

The gold finish runs across the pillars, the top, the handle and the base, with a brushed texture on the base that softens the shine. The pendulum below the dial is finished in gold too, with three round weights and slim leaf shapes that catch the light as it rotates. Care is simple: dust the case with a soft dry cloth, and wipe the clear sides gently with a soft cloth to keep them bright. As a gift it is a lovely choice for anyone who enjoys a traditional clock, and we think it looks best with a little space on either side so the turning pendulum stays in view.
