Description
This miniature mantel clock takes the shape of a vintage telephone, with a small white clock face set into the front of its domed metal base. It is finished in glossy black, with a silver bezel framing the dial and clear black numerals and hands, so the time reads easily at a glance. Above the base, a slender cradle holds the handset with its earpiece and mouthpiece, and a black cord links the handset to the base just as it would on the real thing. The handset lifts free of its cradle, so you can lay it beside the clock or rest it back in place. At 7cm high, 7cm wide and 5cm deep, it is small enough to fit on even a crowded shelf.
Its size makes it an easy fit wherever a full-size clock would crowd the space: on a mantelpiece among family photographs, on a bedside table, or on a desk at home or in the office, where the time stays close at hand. The vintage telephone design brings a touch of old-fashioned charm to a modern room, and the black finish sits well against pale walls, painted shelves and natural wood alike. It stands on its own rounded base, so it needs no wall and no fixings, and you can move it from room to room as you please.
The clock is made of metal and runs on one LR66 button cell battery, which is included, so it is ready to set as soon as it is unpacked. To keep the glossy finish looking its best, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water. The cradle and handset are fine details, so lift the handset by its bar rather than by the cord. Set it beside a stack of books or a favourite plant, or wrap it as a small gift with plenty of character.
