In an age when we depend on our phones for almost everything including telling time, a wall clock seems obsolete.

And, there’s probably a wall clock that suits each of these themes. For example, let’s say you’re inspired by the maharajas of yesteryear and want your home to look like a palace. If that’s the case, you may want to look at wooden wall clock that are carved in the form of a shield. From horses and elephants to stags, you can pick a shield design you like and maybe you could even replicate elements from it in other parts of your home.
Functional vs Aesthetic

If you prioritize functionality, you may want to look at a wall clock that features cubbies for your mail and a few hooks. Alternatively, you may want to look at a clock with a perpetual calendar.
Clocks and time zones
