Warm orange digits, real wood and a grain pattern that belongs to your clock. Discover wooden nixie clocks in oak, walnut, thermo ash, wenge, rosewood, mahogany, bog oak and other distinctive timbers.
Choose the wood, then the shape
Start with the character you want in the room: lighter oak, warm walnut, the deeper tones of thermo ash, or a strongly figured exotic wood. Then compare the case profile and tube size. The same timber feels different in the rounded Capsule and the more architectural Vostok designs.

A physical digit in every nixie tube
Inside a nixie tube, ten shaped metal cathodes sit one behind another. Neon glows around the selected digit, giving the display its depth and warm orange color. We build the case and electronics around original Soviet nixie tubes made decades ago.
