3 reviews for Korean Najeonchilgi Mother-of-Pearl Desk Clock

  1. Emre – Bursa, Türkiye –

    Saat çok güzel ama biraz ağır. İçi kolay okunuyor ve zamanı tam gösteriyor. Paketlemesi iyi değildi, hasar olmadı ama daha dikkatli olabilirdi.

  2. Fatima from London, England –

    Clock looks beautiful on my desk. Works well and keeps good time. Love the design, but it’s a bit pricey.

  3. Emily Carter –

    I love this table clock recreated with mother-of-pearl! It’s beautiful and gorgeous no matter where you look. It makes my interior perfect whether it’s on the bookshelves, bedside, desk, or in the living room.
