{"product_id":"sewing-machine-metal-mantel-clock-with-roman-dial-black","title":"Sewing Machine Metal Mantel Clock with Roman Dial - Black","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mantel clock takes the shape of an old-fashioned sewing machine, with a curved metal arm, an upright spool pin and a spoked hand wheel, all in a distressed black finish worn through to grey-silver and hints of soft green, as though it had spent years in a busy workroom. The round analogue dial sits in the body of the machine and reads in Roman numerals around a centre of visible cogs, and the whole piece rests on a fluted pedestal and a flat rectangular base. It stands 22.5cm tall and 12cm deep, a size that sits comfortably on a mantelpiece without crowding it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it is a freestanding clock, it needs no hook, nail or wall space at all. We like it on a living room mantelpiece, where its vintage character suits a fireplace, and it is just as much at home on a bookshelf, a sideboard or a desk in a study, craft room or sewing room. The black finish works with painted walls, warm wood and exposed brick alike, and the bold Roman numerals make the time easy to read at a glance. It brings a playful, workshop feel to a room without asking for much space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe clock is made from metal and keeps time with a quartz movement that takes AA batteries, also listed as MN1500 or LR6. Batteries are not included, so it is worth having some to hand before you set it going. The distressed finish is part of the design, so every mark and patch of wear is meant to be there rather than a flaw. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and skip polishes, which could dull the aged effect. Set it beside a stack of old books or a jar of buttons for a nod to its design, or wrap it as a gift with plenty of character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDistressed \/ Vintage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.544kg\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\u003eDial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoman numerals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHanging\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efree standing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBatteries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAA \/ MN1500 \/ LR6 (not included)\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 the sewing machine mantel clock?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands 22.5cm tall and 12cm deep, so it fits neatly on a mantelpiece, shelf or sideboard without taking over the space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat battery does the clock take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt runs on AA batteries, also known as MN1500 or LR6.
