Square Glitter Leaf Design Mantel Clock - Grey

This square mantel clock pairs a soft grey face with trailing stems of leaves picked out in silver glitter, so it catches the light as you pass. At its centre sits a square grey dial, set back within a crisp pale border, with slim baton markers in place of numbers and a pair of slender silver hands turning around a polished silver centre. The leaves wind all the way round the front and continue along the sides. It stands 12.8cm tall, 12.8cm wide and 4.8cm deep, a neat, compact size that sits comfortably on a mantelpiece without crowding it.

Being a mantel clock, it stands on its own base, so there is nothing to hang and no wall to drill. That makes it an easy fit for a fireplace shelf, a bedside table, a dressing table or a desk, and its small footprint means it will happily share a shelf with candles and frames. The grey and silver palette is gentle enough to sit alongside cool greys, whites and soft neutrals, while the glitter brings a little sparkle to a living room or bedroom that leans towards a calm, understated look. The plain baton markers make it quick to read at a glance.

Bevelled edges run around the front, giving the square a soft, neat frame, and the back is a plain dark panel with the movement set in the middle. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth, and wipe away fingerprints with a cloth that is barely damp, drying it straight after; keep the glitter leaves away from anything abrasive. If you are choosing a present for someone who loves a little shimmer at home, this is a thoughtful pick, and it looks lovely set slightly off centre on a mantelpiece, balanced by a candle or a small vase on the other side.
