One of two of these have been featured here before, but as the Arne Jacobsen for Rosendahl Danish clocks are now discounted at Fab, we thought it was worth flagging them up.

Karlsson Petals Clock
We do like a nice clock here at Retro To Go and the Karlsson Petals Clock is another good looking timepiece from one of our favourite manufacturers.
Vintage Book Clocks
The Etsy seller by the name of SteampunksNotDead specialises in Vintage Book Clocks.
Each clock is a one of a kind piece and is made from a book usually dating from between 1890 and 1960. Most of the book clocks currently available use obscure titles (The Scarlett Letter was the only one I recognised), but I think they are all the better for it. Various styles of clock hands are available so you can request a certain style. Equally, if you have a book that you would like transformed into a clock, then they are happy to quote for doing that. Prices range from around £16 to just under £100 depending on the size and rarity of the book.
Visit the SteampunksNotDead shop on Etsy for more information.
Albany Catwalk retro clocks wallpaper
The new Albany Catwalk wallpaper collection features this striking design, based around five different retro clocks.
The clocks range from the very distinctive Vitra ball clock style design and a mid-century starburst number, to more neutral minimal designs.
This black and white is the most subdued of the colour combinations available: you can also get this design as metallic teal printed clocks on black, or metallic orange on a chocolate brown background. Those two colourways certainly have more of a retro feel, but possibly have too much impact for the average room.
The wallpaper costs £19.99 a roll.

Re_Vinyl Wall clocks
We've featured hundreds of things made from vinyl on this site over the years, from wallets to coasters to bookends, so it's hard to believe there's much out there in the world of reclaimed vinyl to discover. That's until you take a look at the Re_Vinyl wall clocks.
Pavel Sidorenko creates weird and wonderful clocks, all made from old records, in the shape of things like teapots, umbrellas, birds, cassette tapes and even odes to his native Estonia. Once you've taken your pick from that wide selection you get a further choice, between minimal or vintage style clock hands.
Each clock costs 30 Euros, or 25 Euros if you're lucky enough to be buying within Estonia.

Lulabird clocks
Looking for some bright, quirky and, of course, retro artwork for a kids room? Take a look at the range from Lulabird, a company created by a couple of mothers who found themselves asking the same question.
In answer, they produce plywood wall art and clocks, featuring owls and flowers and whales, all in the same idiosyncratic style as the image shown above. The numbers on the clocks are all deliberately simple to read and so should help with the tricky business of telling the time.
The pieces range in price but, to give you an idea, the whale wall clock pictured is £30.
