Rustic Wood Slice Wall Clock

A cross section cut through a log shows the growth rings, the heartwood and the natural edge of the bark, and no two are alike. Using one as a clock face means the object is genuinely one of a kind rather than one of a production run.

The live edge is what carries it. Rather than being cut to a perfect circle, the outline follows the shape the tree actually grew, so the clock has an irregular natural profile that stands out against a straight-edged wall in a way a machined circle never does.

It suits rustic, cabin and natural interiors, and works particularly well against plain painted plaster where the grain has nothing competing with it. Because each slice is unique, grain, color and outline vary between pieces. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from damp, both of which will move and crack natural timber over time.
