Vintage touches of any kind – furniture, accessories, decor are extremely popular now, and there’s a trend for rocking just one such piece in a modern or contemporary room to give a character and a unique and personalize touch. I’d suggest you to think outside the box and skip usual vintage chairs or artwork that everybody’s rocking and stick to something unusual, for example, a grandfather clock.
A grandfather clock is statement piece, which has been classics for many years, and I’d even say centuries. It’s a large and statement floor clock, pretty tall and with a vintage or shabby chic design, painted or stained. Let’s find out how to incorporate such a piece into different interiors easily.
Grandfather Clock In Various Interiors
Such a piece can be incorporated into a rustic, vintage, Scandinavian, art deco, shabby chic or eclectic space, and as I previously told you – into modern and contemporary spaces, too. If it doesn’t fit with the color, just repaint or restain it and voila – a cool statement piece is done! The same goes to old flea market clocks, if you consider one too worn-looking, just renovate it a bit. As for rooms, grandfather’s clock can be placed in entryways, living rooms, dining rooms and even kitchens and bathrooms, everything depends on what effect you want to achieve.

Repurposing A Grandfather Clock
If you don’t need a real clock but want that special old charm that it brings, repurpose your clock into something else or add some function. Usually it’s displaying objects or storing them, whatever you prefer more or even both. You may remove the door and create an open storage shelf for books, photos, plants and other stuff or keep the door and use the piece as a teaware or beautiful tableware display cabinet.
