Add accent to your room by choosing a distinctive wall clock

There are some items that people use as accessories in a room, which also have a functional design. One of the most common items is the clock. You will find clocks available in all sizes, shapes and themes to use in any room in your home. They are also used in the workplace and come in some digital styles that add a contemporary high-tech feel to an office area. You will find most of these digital styles in the category of large wall clocks. Some can be several feet long and generally have an easy-to-use red LED display.

Clocks that you hang on a wall can be used in a home environment in a kitchen, living room, or bedroom. Ashton Sutter makes a variety of highly decorative wall clocks that feature unusual sunburst patterns. Howard Miller also has a great selection of these watches that come in designs with metal or wood bases. The numbers you find available on these pieces can be either traditional style or Roman numerals. Some may have the advanced feature of incorporating daylight savings time into the clock. There may also be some with multiple boxes for different time zones or barometer readings.

You can choose a decorative style that includes a pendulum on the inner face of the clock. There are also various styles of pendulum clocks in traditional school design. These larger clocks can measure 26 inches or even 48 inches in diameter. Larger LED clocks can come as complete wall units with a moving or animated display for the day, date and time. Some styles of LEDs can be programmed with your own personal message to run across the board as a display.

Whether you’re looking for an attractive accent clock for a kitchen or formal living room, you’ll see styles in country-handcrafted wood designs and elegant brass. There are also some cool clocks that are used in creating an art project, like the gear clock, which has the clock inside a larger piece of art to hang on the wall. Many styles also have decorative faces, which can include images of fruits, animals, or just various colors. New Haven’s merlot-style clock, featuring raised images of a wine glass and bottle created like a work of art, would be the perfect accent to hang over a bar in a home’s recreation room.
