The inspiration for this clock originated with an exploration of how time could be displayed on beautiful timbers resulting in the inlaid diamond hour markers made from sycamore that contrasts with the burr thuja.
The size of the Dial is determined by the length of the Minute Hand and the sweep of the Seconds Dial provides a soothing presence in your room.

Full description
This Handmade Wall Clock in Burr Thuja and Ripple Sycamore is designed to be enjoyed, like a painting, as part of your wall decor whether you need to know the time or not (!) and is also ideal as a Special Occasion Gift for a loved one.
Burr Thuja is a slow growing tree that is native to northwestern Africa in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. When I purchased this veneer from Cripsins in Shoreditch in the 1980s, I was told it was the first they had in stock for 40 years. Ripple or ‘fiddleback’ (seen on the back of violins) sycamore - which is harder to find than straight grained sycamore - has a beautiful ’tiger’s eye’ effect with the play of light on the timber.
An attractive hand made and inlaid wooden Diamond Wall Clock in exotic timbers with the following features:-
- Veneered on the front face with burr thuja, a rare moroccan timber sourced in the 1980s.
- Veneered on the rear face with oak.
- A Ripple sycamore trim.
- Inlaid diamond hour marks in sycamore.
- Size: 211 x 211 x 25mm (8 5/16" x 8 5/16" x 1").
- Standard quartz movement with a year s battery life.
- Signed by Tim Ashby; December 2003; Clock Number 140.
- Supplied in a linen texture blue presentation box.
- Battery and hanging nail Simple Care Instructions included.
