Wood and Epoxy Clock
R 3,500
# A Clock That Stops Time (And Then Tells It) I make these wall clocks by hand, combining wood with deep epoxy pours, and honestly, each one turns out completely different from the last — which is exactly the point. This one sits at 450mm across, big enough to be a proper statement piece without overwhelming a room. The wood grain shows through the epoxy in ways I can never quite predict; sometimes the resin catches the light and seems to glow from inside, other times it sits deep and moody. It keeps perfect time, of course, but it's really about having something on your wall that has actual character — the kind of thing that makes people stop and ask where you found it. What I love about making these is that they work everywhere. I've seen them in minimalist apartments where they're the only decoration, and I've seen them in grand homes where they hold their own against everything else. The wood species, the colors, the size — I can adjust any of it. If you want it smaller for an entryway, larger for a living room feature wall, or in a specific wood that matches your space, I can do that. The epoxy stays food-safe and the mechanism is reliable; this isn't precious art that you're afraid to use. These are for people who actually want to live with something meaningful rather than just own it. Someone who walks past their wall every day and notices the details, who appreciates that it was made by a real person in a workshop, not stamped out in a factory somewhere.
This piece is crafted especially for you after your order is placed. Each one is unique.
The story behind this piece
Where it comes from
I used wood from a tree that actually grew in my own yard — we had to take it down a few years ago, and I couldn't bear to see it go to waste. The grain on this piece is really something special, with these deep patterns running through it that you just don't get with the standard timber you'd buy. I finished it with epoxy to bring out those markings and give it a smooth surface you can actually use. There's something satisfying about turning something from my own space into something that'll last much longer than the tree ever would have standing there.
“I usually stick to cutting boards, but I've always wanted to challenge myself with wood and epoxy, so I made this clock. There's a real sense of pride when it turns out perfectly, and knowing that each one is completely unique — that there'll never be another one quite like it — I hope that's what the person who buys it feels too.”

How it is made
# How This Piece is Made I start by cleaning the wood and stripping away the bark, then I build the form and pour the epoxy in—that part requires patience because you have to get it just right or the whole thing can crack or cloud up on you. Once the epoxy's set, I use my CNC to carve the pattern into it, which is where the design really comes to life. After that comes what feels like the endless part: sanding and polishing to get the finish smooth and the colors glowing the way they should. The whole process takes about eight days from start to finish, and honestly, every single step matters—one mistake early on and you're looking at wasted material and time.

Authenticity
I make every single piece myself from start to finish in my home workshop, working with raw wood and epoxy to create something that's truly one of a kind. Because I'm handcrafting each one, no two pieces will ever be exactly the same — the wood grain, the epoxy colour, the way it all comes together is different every time, and that's what makes each piece special. You're getting something made by my own hands, not mass-produced, so expect beautiful variations that you won't find anywhere else.
Care
# Care Instructions This piece is made to hang on your wall and stay there — no special storage needed, just find it a good spot and enjoy it for years to come. Keep it away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes, as the wood and epoxy can shift over time. Dust it gently with a soft, dry cloth when needed, and avoid hanging it in damp areas like bathrooms or kitchens where moisture could affect the finish. That's really it — treat it like the artwork it is, and it'll last you generations.
