This style of clock takes its name from the 8 sided shape of the clock face, which sits above a pendulum box. Traditionally popular in churches and schools, it is also known as a Schoolhouse Clock.

 

The clock comes in a mahogany style finish.

 

The white clock face has black Arabic numerals and hands.

 

The regulator or pendulum has a glass door which opens to access the pendulum.  The face also has a gold coloured rimmed glass door so the time can be set accordingly.

 

A traditional stylish mechanical clock that needs winding once a month.

 

This clock chimes once on the half hour and then again on the hour.  The number of chimes on the hour corresponds with the number of hours, i.e. 4 O'clock - 4 chimes.  The metal hammer strikes the rounded rods giving a deep rich 'bong' rather than a chime.

 

The height of the clock is 58cm

The width of the clock is 32cm

 

The clock comes with full operating instructions.

 

Please note if you do not wish to have the chimes then these can be turned off by not winding up the left hand key turn on the face of the clock, although the clock will come pre-wound to a certain extent so the clock may chime for a couple of weeks or so.  The right hand key turn powers the clock mechanism and pendulum.
