Decor spotlight: Clocks

Nowadays, those who wear a watch are rare and more often than not, asking someone for the time, results in a frantic search for their phone. Although traditional timepieces may seem a thing of the past, they’re not. In a home, they’re immensely useful gadgets and vary so much in style, that there are lots of options available to match your design sense. No matter what room you’re decorating, consider dressing it up with a timepiece. Whether it's a traditional grandfather clock or something ultra-modern, they offer as much form as function to your chic living space.
