Want a 50s-style clock for your home but can't quite justify the price tag attached to a George Nelson design? For a budget version, take a look at this valance clock.
It's certainly got that period look, with wooden petal shaped arms radiating out from the central dial and contrasting silver-coloured arms. Measuring just over 50cm diameter, it's sure to look striking in a room.
And the price tag? It's a reasonable £65.

The last of the three new George Nelson clock reissues is also the biggest, both in size and in price – the Vitra Flock of Butterflies clock.
Unlike the other two clocks, this is a 1950s design (1955), a metallic geometric frame with a lacquered wood centre, the whole thing a rather large 61cm diameter.
Just over £417 secures you one.
We featured one of these yesterday, but here's a second reissued George Nelson wall clock from the 1960s – the Vitra Polygon clock.
1961 is the year of original creation, with the Polygon offering a quirky shape with lots of angles and sharp edges, not a million miles from yesterday's Wheel, but this time made entirely from walnut, except the quartz movement of course.
Back on the market now, you can pick one up for £305.
A new batch of George Nelson classics have been reissued by Vitra in 2010, including the George Nelson Wheel Clock.
It's from the 1960s, specifically 1961, with a design not dissimilar to the spokes of a car. Hence the name. Those tubular 'spokes' are made from lacquered walnut, with a tip of aluminium, the latter also used for the hands.
It has a diameter of 45.5cm, which is certain to make an impact on any wall. £269 is the price.
We've previously featured all kinds of attractive retro clocks that have come courtesy of Karlsson. This Spider Clock is no exception to the rule.
It features chrome tips that radiate out from the clock face, each covered in brightly coloured balls. In fact, it's quite similar to George Nelson's classic Vitra Ball clock.
However, the Karlsson version is available on a budget, costing just £35.

Yes, it’s another Nelson design, but with a design as stylish as the George Nelson Spindle wall clock, it’s hard to ignore it. Read more
