Periodic Table Resin Wall Clock “Elements of Time”: Alkane Design, Materials, Sizes and What to Know Before You Order
Share
|
Direct Answer (keep near the top of the post) MEHMAT’s Luxury Periodic Table Resin Wall Clock, nicknamed “Elements of Time”, is a handmade, made-to-order wall clock with a hand-poured resin dial styled like a chemist’s periodic table. Instead of a printed grid of 118 elements, the first twelve alkanes, from methane to dodecane, are laid out in gold around a faded molecular grid, framed by a ring of fire glass crystals and dark preserved rose accents on a high-gloss black and gold resin surface. It sits on a wood and MDF base with a quiet quartz movement, comes in sizes from 12" to 40" plus custom dimensions, and is listed at Rs. 15,999 (down from Rs. 25,000, a 36% discount), with free shipping on orders above Rs. 3,000 and a 7-day check warranty. Because every clock is made to order, budget roughly 14 days from order to doorstep. |
What “Periodic Table” Means on This Clock, and What It Doesn’t
Search for a “periodic table clock” and most of what appears is a printed dial showing all 118 elements in a grid. The periodic table resin wall clock from MEHMAT is a different kind of object, and it helps to know exactly what before you order. According to the listing, the dial is styled like a chemist’s periodic table: a faded periodic-table backdrop with a molecular grid, and over it, in gold, the first twelve alkanes. It is a chemistry-themed art clock, not a reference chart, and it will not help anyone memorize the elements.
That distinction decides who should buy it. If you want a clock a student can revise from, a fully printed periodic table clock will do that job for less money. If you want a handmade statement piece that tells every visitor you love chemistry while still looking like décor rather than a classroom poster, this is the better fit. MEHMAT nicknames the design “Elements of Time”, and the name is a fair summary: chemistry as decoration.
The Alkanes on the Dial
Alkanes are the simplest family of organic compounds: chains of carbon atoms surrounded by hydrogen atoms, following the general formula CnH2n+2. The twelve on this clock are the first twelve members of that series, from methane, the main component of natural gas, to dodecane. The table below lists them with their formulas, so you can see what the gold lettering stands for.

There is a neat coincidence here: twelve alkanes for the twelve positions of a clock face. MEHMAT’s listing does not spell out that mapping, though, and the photos show formula-style markers printed around the dial. If the position of one particular molecule matters to you, say a gift for a petroleum engineer and octane, ask before you order rather than assume.
The Design, Piece by Piece
The surface is high-gloss black and gold resin, finished with metallic gold flakes that catch the light as you move past. Around the edge runs a ring of fire glass crystals. Fire glass is the tempered, faceted glass more often seen in fireplaces and fire pits; here it is used purely as a decorative border, and the gallery close-ups show faceted crystals in gold and amber tones. Dark preserved rose accents sit among the crystals, which gives the black-and-gold scheme a softer, more ornate edge than a plain dial would have.
Nothing about this is subtle, and that is the point. The gold lettering, the crystal ring and the glossy resin dome combine into a piece that behaves like wall art first and a timekeeper second, although a working quartz movement keeps real time behind it. In most photos the clock is round, and the effect in a lit room is reflective and glassy, so it is worth thinking about where lamps and windows sit relative to the wall you have in mind.
How It’s Made and What It’s Made Of
Each clock starts as a wood and MDF board. According to the listing, the artisans lay out the periodic-table backdrop and the twelve alkane labels, hand-detail the ring in metallic gold, then set the fire glass crystals and preserved rose accents by hand. A final pour of high-gloss epoxy resin goes over the whole piece, encasing the crystal work in a smooth, glass-like layer. A quartz movement is fitted behind the dial. MEHMAT walks through the shared steps for its whole range in its post on how its resin wall clocks are made, which is worth reading if you like seeing the process.
A quick note on terms. “Resin” is a broad family of materials, and epoxy is one specific member: a two-part system of resin and hardener that cures into a hard, glossy, clear solid. That is why epoxy is the usual choice for coating and encasing decorative work. The listing names epoxy resin but not a brand, and it names a quartz movement but not a maker, so if brands matter to you, ask.
Every piece in the Mehmat Resin Collection is crafted by hand and made only after you order with advance payment, with about 10 days for crafting and 4 for delivery. The collection page also says that no two items are exactly alike, so expect small differences in crystal placement and gold texture compared with the photos.
Sizes, Colors and Custom Orders
The size selector runs from 12" to 40" in 2-inch steps, which is 15 sizes, or roughly 30 cm to 102 cm. The listing also offers fully custom sizes for feature walls, reception areas and oversized offices. For a hallway, a study or a pharmacy counter wall, the smaller and middle sizes will usually do; for a wall behind a reception desk or above a large sofa, look at the larger end.
The listing also promises additional colorways and pattern variants from the Resin Collection, to be chosen “the same way” as the size. At the time of writing the page shows only a size selector, so the practical route is to contact MEHMAT on WhatsApp (+92 346 0133667) or by email (mehmat677@gmail.com), state your size and colour request, and get the confirmation in writing.
Price, Shipping, Delivery Time and Warranty
The listed price is Rs. 15,999, shown against a crossed-out Rs. 25,000 with “36% off” and “Save Rs. 9,001”. The collection page shows “From Rs. 15,999”, which suggests that larger sizes may cost more, so check the size selector for the exact figure at your size. For context on how that sits against other handmade resin clocks, see what resin clocks cost in Pakistan in 2026.
Shipping is Rs. 200 across Pakistan and free on orders of Rs. 3,000 or more, so this clock ships free. On timing, the product page quotes 3 to 5 working days (2 to 3 in Karachi), while the Resin Collection page says made-to-order pieces take about 14 days in total. For a made-to-order piece, the longer figure is the one to plan around, and it is sensible to confirm the date when you order. The warranty is a 7-day check warranty: the item should be unused, in its original packaging, with proof of purchase, and returns start through the same WhatsApp number or email address. The listing shows no customer reviews yet.
What the Photos Show, and What to Confirm When You Order
The gallery has nine images, plus extra pictures in the description, and they are not all identical in detail. Before you pay, confirm these in writing:
• Label and hand colour. The description says the alkane labels are gold, but some photos show white lettering and hands. Say which you want.
• Shape. Most photos show a round clock, while one close-up shows a square one. Confirm that you are getting a round dial.
• Rose accents. The text says preserved roses, and one close-up reads as darker, fabric-like petals. Ask what yours will contain.
• Size and date. The lifestyle scenes show office walls and a display case at large sizes, so check which size a photo shows, and confirm your delivery date.
None of this is unusual for handmade work, and a clear message before ordering avoids almost every disappointment.
How It Differs From a Printed Chemistry Clock
A standard decorative resin clock in the 12 to 14 inch range is commonly listed at around Rs. 2,999 to Rs. 4,500, according to marketplace listings quoted in search results, and a simple printed dial usually costs less still. Those clocks are made in quantity, and that is exactly why they are cheap. This clock is built by hand over a wood and MDF base, with a resin pour, crystal work and gold detailing that cannot be done by a printer. You are paying for craft, materials and time, and for a design that is not on every wall. If you simply want a clock with chemistry on it, you do not need this one. If you like the same black-and-gold treatment with flowers rather than chemistry, MEHMAT’s preserved rose resin clock is the nearest alternative.
Who This Clock Suits, and Who Should Skip It
It suits chemistry teachers, chemical and process engineers, pharmacists, lab managers and recent STEM graduates, as well as offices, clinics and cafés that want a talking point on a wall. It also suits anyone who simply likes black and gold. It is a poor match for someone who wants a revision chart, someone who needs the clock in under a week, or someone who needs to read the time from the far end of a large room, because formula labels take longer to read at a glance than plain numerals do.
The Honest Verdict
This is a well-defined niche piece: handmade, glossy, ornate and unmistakably about chemistry, at a price that is higher than a standard resin clock and well below luxury brands. Read the listing’s promise carefully, since “periodic table” here means a styled backdrop with twelve alkanes and not a full table, and confirm your label colour, shape and delivery date. If those points suit you, it is a distinctive clock for a home, office or lab wall.
