The clock face is a white background with black lines and roman numeral numbers. Around the outside are the minute numbers. A minute and hour hand rest on a moving circular bit in the center of the clock face. The hands of the clock are thin decorative loops that spread out from the center and then come to a sharp point. Close to the bottom edge of the wooden backing are two round wooden knobs. In between these knobs is a circular icon with a light blue background and the large dark blue letter G for the starting of the word Goulbourn. The reversed side of the item has a slot along the top edge of the wooden backing to be able to hang the item against a surface.
