{"product_id":"round-skeleton-mantel-clock-on-base-with-roman-dial-gold","title":"Round Skeleton Mantel Clock on Base with Roman Dial - Gold","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis round skeleton mantel clock opens up its centre to show a cluster of gold-tone gear wheels, framed by a broad ring of Roman numerals. The case and dial carry a gold metallic-effect finish, with a brushed look to the deep rim and a bright polished edge around the face. Black hands sweep across the numerals, and a small subsidiary dial set low in the middle, marked from 10 to 60, has its own fine hand. The clock sits upright on a plain black rectangular base and stands 16cm tall, 13.7cm wide and 6.1cm deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mantel clock belongs on the mantelpiece, and this one gives a fireplace wall a clear centre point, its open face drawing the eye without crowding the shelf. It sits as happily on a bookcase, a sideboard, a hall table or a study desk, and at 16cm tall it fits the spaces where a larger clock would feel heavy. The gold finish suits warm wood, pale painted walls and deeper colour schemes alike, while the black base gives it a crisp line against whatever surface it stands on. The visible gearwork brings a little mechanical interest to a room, the kind of detail that rewards a second look each time you check the hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside, a quartz movement keeps the time and runs on one AA battery, so there is no winding and no cable trailing from the back. Its base gives it a steady footing on any flat surface, with nothing to fix to a wall. To keep the gold finish looking bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth, and steer clear of polishes, sprays and damp cloths on the face and gearwork. For a balanced mantelpiece, we like it set at the centre between a pair of candlesticks or framed photographs, and it makes a handsome gift for anyone who likes a clock with something to look at.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGold\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetallic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.1cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.642kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMovement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eQuartz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalogue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x AA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is this mantel clock?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands 16cm tall, 13.7cm wide and 6.1cm deep, a compact size that sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, shelf, sideboard or desk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat battery does the clock take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt runs on one AA battery, which powers the quartz movement, so there is no winding to do and no mains cable to route.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it hang on the wall or stand up?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands on its own black rectangular base, so it sits upright on any flat surface such as a mantelpiece, bookcase or desk, with no wall fixing needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour is the clock?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe case and dial have a gold metallic-effect finish with black Roman numerals and black hands, and the base it stands on is black.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan you see the workings through the dial?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the centre of the dial is open, showing a cluster of gold-tone gear wheels, with a small subsidiary dial marked from 10 to 60 set low in the middle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I look after the gold finish?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDust it gently with a soft dry cloth to keep the gold finish bright, and avoid polishes, sprays and damp cloths on the face and gearwork.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William Widdop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53463200727307,"sku":"W2939","price":94.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/w2939_01.jpg?v=1792369660","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/round-skeleton-mantel-clock-on-base-with-roman-dial-gold","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
