Each clock in this collection is a 10″ wall clock, made to order in the United States. Printed on a smooth, high-quality acrylic face and set within a natural, black, or white wooden frame, every design is powered by a silent, continuous-sweep quartz movement—no ticking, just quiet precision.

Each clock is $44 with free US shipping included, and usually arrives within 5–7 business days.
