The square clock face is framed by a substantial rounded teak case, its softly sculpted edges and rich natural grain providing an elegant contrast to the warm metallic interior. The dial features distinctive stylised Arabic numerals and fine geometric border detailing, giving the clock an unmistakable mid-century character. A broad gilt bronze pedestal base supports the case, adding both visual weight and a refined metallic accent to the otherwise restrained design. The combination of teak and gilt bronze creates a sophisticated decorative object characteristic of the materials and aesthetics favoured during the 1960s. Battery operated for practical everyday use, the clock is ideally proportioned for display on a desk, mantelpiece, console or bookshelf. A handsome decorative timepiece combining sculptural form, warm materials and classic Mid-Century Modern styling.
