You don't see grandfather clocks much these days. When you've got an iPhone or BlackBerry, who needs a clock or a watch? But they are beautiful, and I'm soothed by the quiet tick-tock of their hands. If you've got the room for one, a grandfather clock can be a charming aesthetic addition to your home. Otherwise, you might consider something like the Ikea Pendel, which doubles as storage. I adore this shabby chic one, photographed by James Merrell. Tell me, do you own one?

I wish. I love grandfather clocks!
1My dad actually built one when he was in college! Once we're in a bigger place, I'll try to convince him to give it to us as a housewarming present.
2I really like that Ikea one because of the shelves. You should notify us when it becomes available!
3Yum, I was about to say the same thing
It's a little sad how we don't see many of them around, I love the one in the movie "Laura."
4i don't. i love the way they look, but my dad has one and the "GONG-GONG!" on the hour all night long makes it hard to sleep.
