This clock is a perfect addition to our mantle decor. A large mirror once hung over our fireplace mantle but after taking it off of the wall for cleaning, we realized we liked the space better without it. This rustic clock was unpacked, assembled (take a cover off of the hands and insert batteries) and mounted on the wall in 10 minutes. The large, durable yet delicate-looking piece ties our modern/country-themed family room together perfectly!
