This kitchen clock has a distinctive design that will add character and charm to the decor. It is based on an old French publicity clock for Onion soup. French onion soup (Soupe à l'oignon) is an onion and beef broth or a beef stock based soup traditionally served with croutons and cheese as toppings. Soupe à l'oignon was popular in France many years ago with poor people, as onions were plentiful and easy to grow and cheap.
The design has some fantastic detail and it looks very weathered. The clock dial has an impressive 36cm diameter which makes it stand out in kitchens both modern and traditional.
