Reclaimed Cable Spool Clock
The clock face no doubt holds a very interesting history... though its origin is unknown. Salvaged by Mr RY, the scrapes and tarnish add character and so remain.
Smoothed by hand, the recycled cable spool timber was treated to a colour wash of ebony stain, followed by jacobean dark oak wax to seal.
Complete with natural knots as well as nail holes and cracks - all of which contribute to the shabby chic look of this piece.
Given a new lease of life, the Rekindled Way, this will look stunning in any space.
