{"product_id":"horloge-murale-engrenages-chiffres-romains","title":"Roman Numeral Gears Wall Clock | Galdo","description":"\u003ch2\u003eRoman numeral gears wall clock: where metal plays with the light\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat strikes you first is the contrast. The matte black rim absorbs everything, then the gold Roman numerals emerge with a presence few wall clock faces achieve. Against a brick wall or a polished concrete partition, this sense of depth becomes even stronger. The black recedes, the gold advances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the centre, \u003cstrong\u003emetal gears\u003c\/strong\u003e with a patinated bronze finish create visible mechanics that aren't just for show. The teeth are solid, chunky, cast with real relief. When raking light hits them, it reveals every groove and edge. This isn't a printed pattern, nor a surface-applied texture: the cogs genuinely occupy the space between the face and the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eslender gold hands\u003c\/strong\u003e stand out sharply against this busy backdrop. Their tapered profile avoids the visual confusion you'd get with broader hands set against such a detailed centre. You can read the time at a glance, even from a distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe silver version changes the whole register entirely. Where gold calls for dark walls, brick and raw interiors, silver sits better in lighter rooms with grey metal or white tones. Same structure, different reading. Both finishes are also available with classic Arabic numerals, for anyone who prefers a more immediate reference point than Roman numerals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 30, 35 and 40 cm sizes cover a fairly wide range. At 30 cm, the clock sits on a wall without dominating it. At 40 cm, it becomes the piece the rest of the room is arranged around. The difference is real: ten centimetres of diameter completely changes its relationship with the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis model suits interiors that embrace raw materials and volume: converted workshops, open-plan kitchens with metal fittings, factory-style offices. If you want to lean further into this look, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/industrial-wall-clocks\"\u003eIndustrial Wall Clocks\u003c\/a\u003e selection brings together models that share this spirit, as does our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-wall-clocks\"\u003eMetal Wall Clocks\u003c\/a\u003e range for other finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDecorative or functional: why that's the wrong question\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany exposed-gear clocks bet everything on visual impact and sacrifice readability. This one holds on to both. The gold Roman numerals are tall enough to read from across the room, and their even spacing around the black rim avoids the crowding you often see on more heavily decorated models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eRoman numeral gears wall clock\u003c\/strong\u003e works precisely because it keeps its visual layers distinct. The black rim at the edge, the numerals floating above it, the gears set back at the centre, the hands passing in front of everything. Each layer has its place. The result: the eye takes in the piece gradually instead of getting lost in an indistinct whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis gear-driven model holds its own on a busy wall, provided the surrounding pieces are flatter and more understated. It also works very well on a bare wall, where it becomes the sole focal point. These are two opposite uses, and both work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bronze patina on the cogs plays a precise role in this balance. Darker than the hands, lighter than the rim, it creates a third tone that stops the centre from looking too dense. It's a detail you don't consciously notice, but one that shapes how you perceive the whole piece.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Gold - Roman Numerals \/ 30cm","offer_id":54706716344658,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold - Roman Numerals \/ 35cm","offer_id":54706716377426,"sku":null,"price":69.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold - Roman Numerals \/ 40cm","offer_id":54706716410194,"sku":null,"price":79.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver - Roman Numerals \/ 30cm","offer_id":54706716442962,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver - Roman Numerals \/ 35cm","offer_id":54706716475730,"sku":null,"price":69.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver - Roman Numerals \/ 40cm","offer_id":54706716508498,"sku":null,"price":79.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold - Standard Numerals \/ 30cm","offer_id":54706716541266,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold - Standard Numerals \/ 35cm","offer_id":54706716574034,"sku":null,"price":69.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold - Standard Numerals \/ 40cm","offer_id":54706716606802,"sku":null,"price":79.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver - Standard Numerals \/ 30cm","offer_id":54706716639570,"sku":null,"price":59.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver - Standard Numerals \/ 35cm","offer_id":54706716672338,"sku":null,"price":69.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver - Standard Numerals \/ 40cm","offer_id":54706716705106,"sku":null,"price":79.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1110\/0291\/1058\/files\/horloge-industrielle-15_9c29547a-6c8e-43c0-b493-16fe2066b63c.jpg?v=1789245088","url":"https:\/\/harringtonclocks.com\/products\/horloge-murale-engrenages-chiffres-romains","provider":"Harrington Clocks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
