{"product_id":"morado-pau-ferro-clock","title":"Morado (Pau Ferro) Clock","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSome clocks tell time. This one tells a story.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep in the forests of Bolivia and Brazil grows a wood so dense, so richly grained, and so ferociously beautiful that it earned a name that needs no translation: \u003cstrong\u003ePau Ferro\u003c\/strong\u003e — \u003cem\u003eIron Wood\u003c\/em\u003e. Known in the workshop as Morado, this is the timber that luthiers quietly reach for when Brazilian Rosewood — once the gold standard of fine instrument-making — became too precious and too protected to use. Guitarists who play on a Morado fretboard feel the difference immediately: it is harder than rosewood, heavier than mahogany, and possessed of a naturally high luster that seems lit from within. On this clock face, those same qualities command a room. Every plank of Morado tells its own story in contrasting bands of chocolate brown, warm gold, and near-black streaks that course through the wood like a topographic map of something ancient. No two faces are alike. None ever will be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen there is the \u003cstrong\u003ePadauk\u003c\/strong\u003e — and Padauk does not whisper. Harvested from the tropical forests of West Africa, this wood arrives at the shop a blazing vermillion-orange, so vivid it almost feels aggressive. It is sometimes called \u003cem\u003eCoral Wood\u003c\/em\u003e for good reason. Under UV light, it glows. On this clock, that living fire is cut into twelve precise hour markers inlaid flush against the Morado face — orange flame against iron earth. Over the years, the Padauk will slowly deepen and warm toward a rich reddish-brown, maturing gracefully, the way all beautiful things do. Your clock will look different — better — a decade from now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole composition is anchored by a pair of \u003cstrong\u003esolid brass hands\u003c\/strong\u003e, their warm gold tone bridging the two wood species and grounding the piece without competing with it. At \u003cstrong\u003e18 inches across\u003c\/strong\u003e, this is not a clock you hang and forget. It is the first thing a guest sees when they walk into a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid Morado (Pau Ferro \/ Bolivian Rosewood)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHour markers:\u003c\/strong\u003e African Padauk inlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHands:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision quartz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandmade\u003c\/strong\u003e — each clock is one of a kind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBold wood.
