Pure polished copper face with a bold starburst dial, set within an embossed copper border with decorative cast corner panels. The 12 o'clock position is marked with a real malachite cabochon — deep green stone native to the Zambian Copperbelt — giving this clock a direct connection to its country of origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHour positions are marked with radiating spike-and-dot indexes etched into the copper face. The movement has been replaced with a new quartz mechanism; the original hands are retained, sympathetically matched to keep the authentic period look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs with all vintage copper pieces, the face shows age-related patina and some minor surface marks — these are reflected in the price and photographed honestly. The decorative border panels retain good detail and the malachite marker is vivid and intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCopper Crafts Ltd\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZambia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePure polished copper\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 o'clock marker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMalachite cabochon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDial design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStarburst \/ sunburst\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBorder\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEmbossed copper with cast decorative corner panels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13.25 x 9.25 inches (33.5 x 23.5 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMovement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eQuartz (new), original hands retained\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCondition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGood vintage — surface patina and minor marks as photographed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFree tracked delivery across the UK.
