Gold Gilded Artwork

"When rooks and gulls
twirl high in the sky,

it’s a certain sign that

a gale is nigh"

Traditional weather lore

HIGHLIGHTS
  • Hand-finished with gold leaf - Theodora will be hand-gilding each clock's artwork and clockface. Both the sunshine and clock face's bumble bee will be individually painted and gilded. No clock will be exactly the same.
  • Weather lore to tell the family – Theodora's artwork is inspired by the natural world and this passion led her to research 'weather lore' - the art of weather forecasting by taking cues from nature. This clock, with its five storytelling scenes includes these oft-forgotten pieces of wisdom.
  • Made to order & limited availability – Every clock ordered will be bespoke made at our workshop, giving Theodora time to hand finish each one. Their availability is seasonal, with order windows open only periodically and batch sizes no more than 25 clocks.
  • "Weather lore & Folklore"– Theodora Gould describes her artwork development: “It’s a joy to bring old weather lore back into everyday life — a gentle reminder of our connection to nature. And I love how the gold on the sun catches the light… it makes my eyes twinkle.”
  • An additional gift from Theodora - each Gilded Lore Art Clock comes with a letter from the artist and a selection of premium illustrated cards. These explain her weather lore scenes and are perfect for framing or sending in the post.
  • Suits any room – whether you want it to blend in or stand out, we've designed your Weather Art Clock to suit a whole variety of settings, from kitchen to hallway.
  • A good size – the Weather Art Clock's frame measures 33cm diameter (13 inches) and 12.5cm deep (5 inches) – big enough to work as a single focal point in a room, small enough to sit alongside other wall art and furnishings.
  • Peace of mind – reflecting the trust we put in our dedicated workshop team and the quality of our clocks, every one comes with a one-year warranty, easily extendable to two years by registering your purchase. 
  • “What a clock!” – not our words, but those of another happy Bramwell Brown customer. Read more reviews

  • Hand assembled to order in Great Britain
    All of the Gilded Lore Weather Clocks will be made to order at our workshop in Hampshire, England. We will take orders periodically, with their assembly in the weeks after the sales window closes. See above for current dates.

  • Warrantied & Sustainable Design
    All our clocks come with a full warranty as standard, extendable to two years. We’ve designed the clock for a very long life in your home. And it’s fully serviceable (if it ever needs to be) – with all the parts available with our UK-based workshop.

  • Watch it change
    Want to show off the gold-gilded sunshine or stormy skies? Don’t wait for the weather to change, just press the ‘Mechanimate Button’ on the base to make it whizz into life – then watch the reaction from friends and family.

  • Weather artwork
    The illustrated scenes, inspired by Theodora's research of traditional weather lore change with the barometric air pressure. Just like the barometers of old, there are five possible weather forecasts: ‘Very Dry’, ‘Fair’, ‘Change’, ‘Rain’, and ‘Stormy’.

  • Easy to hang (indoors!)
    A single screw in the wall can hold the clock and you get a nifty hanging guide in the box. This clock is for indoor use only – just please don't hang it within 50cm (20 inches) of a radiator. The delicate mechanics don’t enjoy direct heat.

  • Certificate of Authenticity
    A badge of honour for every Bramwell Brown Weather Art Clock we make, signed by the team members that assembled it for you.

  • 60-day returns, so you can be sure it’s right for you
    We’re sure you’re going to love this clock. But if you change your mind, for whatever reason, just send it back to us within 60 days of delivery for an exchange or full refund. You can read more about our hassle-free process here.
