Mantel Clocks

What goes over the fireplace? A mantel clock. It’s an easy and classic design element that has a lot of practical use too. If you are tired of searching around for your phone to look at the time or are just old fashioned like that, a mantel clock is what your house needs. There used to be a time, not so long ago, where also every room of the home had a clock. Today it’s becoming a rare sight. This is why your antique mantel clock will be a vintage throwback, to a time when people didn’t carry devices on them all the time. While clocks come in tons of designs and sizes (check out Grandfather Clocks), mantel clocks are for those who don’t have a lot of space. It’s also a good choice for people who don’t want a single dominating element of design in a room. Antique mantel clocks can be ornate, gilt edged beauties or simple, wooden devices that are classic in every way. Go with a contrasting mantel clock and watch your living room be transformed. We LOVE the idea of a French Ornate mantel clock in a comfy room with cottage vibes. Similarly a mid-century acrylic and marble mantel clock can be a great addition to a modern room. The marble will create a wonderful texture that is timeless and will always be in vogue. Love the idea of a mid-century modern clock for your home? We have tons of options.
