Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae's poetic tribute to those who lost their lives during WWI forever stirs our nation's emotions whilst also evoking pride in those who have served their country - past and present. The Bradford Exchange pays tribute to our armed forces with the Lest We Forget Sculptural Clock - an exclusive presentation officially endorsed by the Lest We Forget Association.
Expertly handcrafted, this clock depicts a pair of hand-sculpted soldiers, their heads bowed in solemn remembrance. Each is handpainted in rich bronze patinas, reminiscent of museum-quality pieces. The precision Quartz movement clock is set into a transparent art panel which features a montage of soldiers set against a field of vibrant red poppies. Hidden LED lights illuminate the scene on the face, which is also accented with a memorial wreath and the tribute, Lest We Forget. The bevelled, wood-tone base features a golden excerpt from John McCrae's 'In Flanders Field' poem.
