Description
This round wall clock puts its workings on show, with a see-through dial, layered cogs at the centre and a twist of rope wrapped all the way around the rim. Roman numerals sit on slim spokes around the edge, so the wall behind shows through between them, and a rope loop rises from a ribbed collar at the top, much like the bow of an old pocket watch. The frame, cogs and numerals carry an antique bronze tone with a lightly worn look along the rim, set off by gold-toned hands and the natural colour of the rope. It measures 30cm wide, 39cm high and 4.5cm deep.
Hung on a plain wall, it gives a living room, study, hallway or dining room a focal point with a vintage, industrial feel. Because the dial is open, it looks lighter on the wall than a solid clock of the same width. The bronze and rope tones sit comfortably with warm woods, leather, linen and soft neutral walls, and the cogs give a rustic or workshop-style scheme a point of interest. At 4.5cm deep it sits close to the wall, so it works well above a sofa, a sideboard or a console table, where the numerals are easy to read across the room.
It runs on one AA battery, which fits into the movement at the centre of the back. The rope loop at the top hangs it from a single sturdy hook or nail, so there is no bracket to fit. To keep it looking its best, dust the frame, cogs and numerals now and then with a soft dry cloth or a soft brush that reaches between the spokes, and keep the rope dry. For the neatest look, hang it at eye level with a little clear wall either side, so the open dial and cogs can be seen properly.
