Description
A distinctive vintage granite rock wall clock and hygrometer station dating to the 1970s, combining natural stone with decorative brass-toned details in a striking Mid-Century Modern design.
The piece is constructed from a naturally shaped slab of granite, retaining its irregular raw edges and richly textured surface. The stone displays an attractive combination of grey, cream, charcoal, and darker mineral tones, ensuring that the natural material remains the main decorative feature.
Mounted prominently on the upper section is a circular hygrometer with a clean white dial, black scale, and polished brass-toned surround. The instrument measures relative humidity from 20% to 100%, adding a functional element to the sculptural design.
Below the hygrometer, applied brass-toned hour markers and an ornate decorative pendulum-style element create the appearance of a stylized wall clock. The contrast between the rugged natural granite and polished metallic details gives the piece its characteristic 1970s decorative appeal.
