Marley Steel & Brass Wall Clock  

8x20x2 inches

MAR-BS

This minimalist, geometric wall clock is made of textured stainless steel with a slightly raised oval face of textured brass. (Note that the minute hand extends 1.25 inches beyond the top/bottom edge of the steel on the hour and half-hour, so a total of 10.5 inches vertical clearance is needed when hanging.)
