This large industrial wall clock dates from the 1930s, manufactured by Smiths in an electric style. The piece comprises a circular white enamelled metal frame enclosing a cream-coloured glazed dial protected by glass. Bold black Arabic numerals run around the face alongside thin tick marks for minutes, paired with tapered black hands and a small winder knob projecting from the base. A braided black electrical flex hangs downwards from the lower edge. Measuring 60 cm high, 60 cm wide, and 13 cm deep, the clock suits display on a narrow wall space within an industrial loft interior, functioning as a practical timekeeping fixture in a kitchen, hallway, or home office.

FAQs

Introduced in the 1930s by Smiths English Clocks Ltd, Sectric clocks were domestic and commercial electric timepieces powered directly by the mains AC supply, eliminating the need for manual winding.

Clocks from this period typically featured heavy-gauge spun metal or bakelite casings, glazed glass faces, and painted metal dials with bold Arabic numerals designed for maximum legibility across large commercial spaces.

Authentic pieces feature the makers mark SMITHS or SMITHS SECTRIC printed on the dial, along with origin markings such as MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN near the bottom edge and period-correct casing construction.

Large utility clocks serve as focal points in modern kitchens, home offices, or entryways, pairing effectively with exposed brickwork, contemporary cabinetry, or minimalist furnishings.

Clean the glass dial and painted metal casing gently with a soft dry cloth, avoiding abrasive chemicals, and ensure any internal electrical components are inspected and rewired by a certified electrician prior to use.
