Increasing its width also increases its height, which can make the space above a sideboard, headboard or row of kitchen units harder to use. An ellipse separates those dimensions. This clock measures 800mm across and 300mm high, giving it a broad horizontal format without the same vertical height.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"d-sec\"\u003e \u003ch2 class=\"d-h d-hu\"\u003eThe White Oval Wall Clock in Full\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul class=\"d-ul\"\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eElliptical case:\u003c\/span\u003e 800mm wide and 300mm tall, made from MDF with a glass front.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eSnow white face:\u003c\/span\u003e a glass surface rather than printed board, keeping the front flat and clean.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eTimber edge:\u003c\/span\u003e a slim warm-toned rim running around the full outline of the ellipse.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eGold hands:\u003c\/span\u003e slim, tapered and the strongest colour on the dial.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eMinimal markings:\u003c\/span\u003e only 12 and 6 are printed, leaving the remaining hours unmarked.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eQuiet movement:\u003c\/span\u003e powered by one AA battery, with no pendulum or anything hanging below the case.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"d-sec\"\u003e \u003ch2 class=\"d-h\"\u003eOnly Two Numbers on the Dial\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp class=\"d-p\"\u003eMost of the hours are left unmarked, with only 12 and 6 printed on the face. The position of the hands provides the main indication of the time, while the two opposite numerals act as fixed reference points. Leaving the other ten hours unnumbered keeps the dial visually simple. From a distance, the face remains uncluttered, while closer viewing reveals the white surface and gold detail.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"d-sec\"\u003e \u003ch2 class=\"d-h\"\u003eGlass and Timber, Doing Different Jobs\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp class=\"d-p\"\u003eThe glass front gives the face a flat surface with a faint sheen from the light in the room. Around it, the timber edge introduces a warmer tone. The rim is narrow rather than chunky, giving the outline definition against a pale wall without making timber the dominant material in the design.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"d-sec\"\u003e \u003ch2 class=\"d-h\"\u003eWhere This Clock Works Best\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp class=\"d-p\"\u003eThe wide, shallow proportions suit wall areas with more width than height. Possible positions include above a sideboard or console, over a sofa, along a landing, above a headboard or on the free section of wall at the end of a kitchen. The combination of white, gold and timber also works with contemporary and modern schemes while keeping the overall appearance restrained.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"d-sec\"\u003e \u003ch2 class=\"d-h\"\u003eBefore It Goes on the Wall\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul class=\"d-ul\"\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eBattery not supplied:\u003c\/span\u003e 1 x AA, using a fresh alkaline battery rather than a part-used cell.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eFix it properly:\u003c\/span\u003e at 2.6kg with a glass front and single sawtooth hanger, use a wall plug or a stud.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eCheck it is level:\u003c\/span\u003e the horizontal proportions can make an uneven position easier to notice.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"d-li\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"d-lbl\"\u003eAllow the width:\u003c\/span\u003e at 800mm wide, measure the available wall space before fixing.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Urban Mill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57334649618812,"sku":"CL043","price":129.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/9672\/1715\/files\/thomas-kent-greenwich-ellipse-80cm-oval-wall-clock-lifestyle.jpg?v=1787319169","url":"https:\/\/www.theurbanmill.co.uk\/products\/large-white-and-gold-oval-wall-clock","provider":"The Urban Mill","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
