Industrial Table Clocks and Desk Clocks
INDUSTRIAL STYLE
Industrial floor lamps, bar stools, desks and other industrial-style furnishings have experienced a resurgence in popularity with the rise of interest in minimalist design.
It's a look that celebrates the past even as it suggests vigor, productivity and brawn. The newly chic industrial style of decor repurposes the simple, sturdy furniture of an earlier world of commerce — brushed-metal storage cabinets and display shelves, task lamps and pendant lights with enameled shades, work tables with worn wooden tops and cast-iron bases — and couples them with aesthetic touches emblematic of energy and optimism, from bright upholstery fabrics to flowers.
The rise in prominence of the industrial style has come hand-in-hand with the residential repurposing of former manufacturing and warehouse districts throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. In many loft apartments created in shuttered factories, the architectural envelope has been left intact.
Industrial-style interiors feature elements like raw brick walls, exposed steel beams and oak floors whose history is written in every pit and gouge. Iron and glass transom windows give definition and interest to small kitchen areas anchored by kitchen islands made of marble, steel and brass, while taxidermy or vintage neon signs serve as wall art in living rooms dotted with leather club chairs. Patina is the keynote to a decor in sync with such surroundings.
On 1stDibs you will find industrial furniture designs that wear their age beautifully — and were built to last.

French Automaton Industrial Locomotive Clock
Located in New Orleans, LA
An exceptionally rare timepiece from a bygone age of industry, this automaton clock takes the form of a locomotive. The eight-day movement strikes on a gong and tells the time on a white porcelain chapter ring dial. An aneroid barometer and stick thermometer are also integrated into the complex design, lending it functionality beyond a simple time teller. It also features a separate mechanism that causes the wheels to spin when wound, bringing life to this Industrial wonder.
Though it is undeniably an impressive piece of clockmaking, it is also a remarkable work of art. Crafted of silvered and gilt bronze, this train displays an impressive degree of historical accuracy. A cow catcher is mounted at the front, while the smokebox, safety valves, cylinders and ladders are all included. It is truly a wonderful example of the Industrial series of clocks popular in French horology during the late 19th century.
