Modern space-age design fuses with mid-Century retro style in the Henry mantel clock. A rectangular case coated in matt black silicone holds a cream dial. The contemporary mantel clock stands on elongated angled legs. Known as silent sweep in the industry, the hands move in a constant sweeping motion rather than a stepped tick. So you won't hear any ticking but if your hearing is particularly sensitive in a completely silent room you may hear a very quiet whirring.
