Round Cut Out Design Wall Clock with Gold Hands 72cm - Black

This round wall clock is cut right back to its outline: a slim black ring, four straight spokes meeting at a round black centre, and a pair of gold spade hands set across the open space between them. There is no dial and there are no numbers. The spokes sit at twelve, three, six and nine, so the quarters are marked for you and the time reads at a glance from across the room. Look at it from the side and the ring turns out to be two, one set just behind the other, which gives the frame real depth on the wall. It measures 72cm high, 65cm wide and 11cm deep, a generous size that fills a large wall without crowding it.

Because the wall shows straight through the frame, the clock takes on whatever colour sits behind it, so it looks just as good on dark grey paint as on white plaster or bare brick. At this size we would put it on a living room wall above a sofa or sideboard, in a dining room, or on a broad landing or open-plan wall that needs something with presence. The black and gold pairing suits warm wood tones and cooler, pared-back schemes alike, and the open design keeps a big clock from feeling heavy.

It runs on one AA battery, the MN1500 size, and hangs from a small round bracket at the top of the frame that fixes to the wall, holding the double ring a little way out from it. To keep it looking its best, dust the ring, spokes and hands now and then with a soft dry cloth, and handle the slim hands gently so they stay straight. Hang it with the centre at about eye level, or a little higher over furniture, and leave clear wall around it so the open circle reads cleanly.
