-A. A. Milne, Winnie The Pooh

What a vision that is. We are continuously adding new quotes to Author Clock. Once it's connected to your WiFi they'll simply begin to... apparate.
One face, many tongues
Great works belong to the world. Choose from English, French, Spanish, and German, each obsessively curated by our editorial team.
Details worthy of Dickens
The Author Clock is encased in solid white oak. Its base and crown are polished brass and its paper-like screen is framed by a smooth bezel with a satin finish.
"Nature didn't need an operation to be beautiful. It just was."
- Scott Westerfeld, The Uglies Trilogy

Great Gift for Bookworms
We plant a tree for every Author Clock sold. Perhaps, years from now, its branches and leaves will give shade to an author as they scribble down notes for their next novel.
A Tale of Two Sizes
Vol. 1
Small but perfectly crafted, like a haiku in physical form. A lovable desk companion, comfortably readable at arm’s length.
Vol. 2
Large enough to jostle for space with a copy of Anna Karenina. Put it on your bookshelf or hang it on a wall in need of inspiration.
An essential gift for the bookish
