Vintage Design
Reclaimed Double Sided Factory Clock
An original vintage double-sided factory clock reclaimed from the Westons Cider Factory in Herefordshire.
Crafted by English Clock Systems Ltd in London, England, circa 1960.
The original bronze / copper factory finish paint is retained.
The sleek shape of the clock and minimalist design of the hand and type face used on the Arabic numerals give a nod to the Mid-century modern era it was designed in.
The clean white dial also incorporates the makers marks to centre “ENGLISH CLOCK SYSTEMS LONDON” and “MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN” to lower centre below the 6.
The clock is mains powered (240v) each dial independently and time can be set and adjusted via the two adjuster rods to the underside of the clock.
Eco-conscious designers will appreciate the sustainability of this reclaimed clock, which has been expertly restored extending its lifespan and further reducing waste . By choosing a vintage industrial light like this one, you’re not only adding character and charm to your space, but also reducing your carbon footprint by reusing existing materials.
About The Period
Mid-century Modern
Mid-century modern is a design style that emerged in the mid-20th century, roughly between the 1940s to the 1960s, and has since become a timeless and influential aesthetic. It is characterized by a clean and minimalist design, with an emphasis on functionality, simplicity, and form. This style often features sleek, organic shapes, bold geometric patterns, and a limited color palette with natural, muted tones. Mid-century modern furniture often incorporates materials like wood, metal, and glass, and is marked by a focus on clean lines and simplicity. The mid-century modern style has become synonymous with a sense of sophistication and elegance, and is a popular choice for interior design projects, as well as for furniture and home decor.
