Large Reclaimed Railway Platform Clock by Synchronome
Located in Nottingham, GB
Introducing the Beautiful Original Railway Clock by Synchronome - a vintage masterpiece that embodies the best of British clock-making. Crafted in England circa 1920 by The Synchronome Company Ltd, this clock exemplifies the brand's dedication to producing the most accurate electric clocks of the early to mid-20th century. Featuring a rear movement cover stamped 'CLACTON ON SEA STATION CONCOURSE,' this clock exudes a sense of history and character that will transport you to a different era. The one-piece green enamelled stepped steel case and aged white enamelled dial with evidence of some paint repairs over the years add to its unique charm. The dial indices are complete in Roman numerals, and the large Syncronome Electric makers mark takes centre stage. The trademark spade hands found on most Synchronome Clocks add a touch of elegance and sophistication. This clock retains its original slave movement, which includes a modern impulse driver to run the clock. This provides a satisfying click every 30 seconds, moving the minute hand each impulse, and can be either battery or mains operated. You can also contact us if you require other movement options. Standing at an impressive size, this clock will be a focal point of any interior, as seen in the images with a 6ft 1" figure representing scale. Whether you are looking for a striking piece for your home or a unique addition to your vintage clock collection...

Antique, New and Vintage Decorative Objects

Every time you move into a house or an apartment — or endeavor to refresh the home you’ve lived in for years — life for that space begins anew. The right home accent, be it the simple placement of a decorative bowl on a shelf or a ceramic vase for fresh flowers, can transform an area from drab to spectacular. But with so many materials and items to choose from, it’s easy to get lost in the process. The key to styling with decorative objects is to work toward making a happy home that best reflects your personal style. 

Ceramics are a versatile addition to any home. If you’ve amassed an assortment of functional pottery over the years, think of your mugs and salad bowls as decorative objects, ideal for displaying in a glass cabinet. Vintage ceramic serveware can pop along white open shelving in your dining area, while large stoneware pitchers paired with woven baskets or quilts in an open cupboard can introduce a rustic farmhouse-style element to your den.

Translucent decorative boxes or bowls made of an acrylic plastic called Lucite — a game changer in furniture that’s easy to clean and lasts long — are modern accents that are neutral enough to dress up a coffee table or desktop without cluttering it. If you’re showcasing pieces from the past, a vintage jewelry box for displaying your treasures can spark conversation. Where is the jewelry box from? Is there a story behind it?

Abstract sculptures or an antique vessel for your home library can draw attention to your book collection and add narrative charm to the most appropriate of corners. There’s more than one way to style your bookcases, and decorative objects add a provocative dynamic. “I love magnifying glasses,” says Alex Assouline, global vice president of luxury publisher Assouline, of adding one’s cherished objects to a home library. “They are both useful and decorative. Objects really elevate libraries and can also make them more personal.”

To help with personalizing your space and truly making it your own, find an extraordinary collection of decorative objects on 1stDibs.
