Rustic sporting lodge character defines this distinctive FIGI “Wilderness Bound” hinged clock, a decorative piece that celebrates classic hunting tradition. The design resembles a small wooden cabinet, its textured finish evoking aged timber and field-worn craftsmanship. Opening the hinged door reveals a traditional clock face framed within, while the door itself features a relief scene of a hunting dog working through tall grass—capturing the spirit of the upland hunt. The top of the clock is richly detailed with outdoor-themed elements that bring the story to life. A mallard duck decoy rests across a stack of field books, while nearby sit a leather-style gear bag and a pair of binoculars draped along the side. These sculpted accents create a miniature vignette of hunting camp equipment, giving the piece the feel of a curated sporting display. Produced by FIGI Graphics in 1998, this battery-operated decorative clock blends functional timekeeping with lodge-style décor. It makes a charming accent for a cabin, office, study, or any space celebrating the outdoors and traditional sporting heritage. Discovered by Treasures Of Bako - Have we got a gem for you?! -
