Bentima Art Deco Oak Mantel Clock
Twin Train Gong Strike • British Made • Fully Restored
A Striking Art Deco Statement Piece
A beautifully presented vintage Bentima mantel clock dating from the mid-20th century, showcasing elegant Art Deco styling and traditional British craftsmanship.
The dark oak case features an attractive book-matched chevron veneer across the front, complemented by sweeping curved side supports, shaped curved feet and a polished chrome bezel. The silvered Roman numeral chapter ring frames the striking oak dial centre, creating a timeless and sophisticated appearance.
