Know before you buy
Yes, the clock operates on a single AA battery. It is designed for easy access, making battery changes quick and straightforward.
Each clock features a hand-painted Courtly Check design on heavy-gauge, hand-glazed steel. Because it is artisan-crafted, there may be slight variations, which adds to the unique character of each piece.
The clock utilizes a standard quartz movement. While it is designed for accurate timekeeping, it produces a subtle, traditional ticking sound typical of analog quartz clocks.
While it is categorized as a desk and shelf clock, the 12-inch diameter makes it a versatile piece. You can display it on a mantel or bookshelf, or mount it on a wall depending on your interior layout.
To maintain the finish, wipe the clock gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the hand-painted enamel and the bronzed stainless steel rim.
