Orologio dell'occhio

$720

Made by Vitra

Designed by George Nelson

L'Eye Clock, disegnato da George Nelson e prodotto da Vitra, trasforma il modo di tenere il tempo in un'espressione scultorea. La sua forma allungata, abbinata a un centro circolare, ricorda un occhio, invitando a un orientamento sia orizzontale che verticale per adattarsi a diverse configurazioni di parete. Realizzato in caldo noce ed elementi in ottone lucidato, le lancette minimaliste fluttuano al centro, in linea con la filosofia di Nelson di leggere il tempo attraverso la forma piuttosto che i numeri. Icona di design senza tempo, l'Eye Clock porta eleganza e fascino mid-century in qualsiasi interno.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Vitra Eye Clock an authorized reissue?

Yes. Vitra produces the Eye Clock under official license from the George Nelson estate, maintaining the proportions and material palette of the original 1950s design. It is the definitive authorized version available today.

Can the Eye Clock be hung vertically or horizontally?

The Eye Clock is designed to work in both orientations. Its elliptical form reads as balanced in either direction, allowing placement to respond to the specific geometry of a wall or room.

What movement does the Vitra Eye Clock use?

The Eye Clock uses a quartz movement, which ensures reliable accuracy with minimal maintenance. A standard battery powers the mechanism.

What materials are used in the Eye Clock's construction?

The body is crafted from walnut, and the hands and accent elements are finished in polished brass. Both materials develop a subtle patina over time, deepening the character of the piece.

Who was George Nelson and why are his clocks significant?

George Nelson served as design director at Herman Miller from 1945 to 1972 and is considered one of the founding figures of American modernism. His clock series, introduced in the 1940s and 1950s, reframed the wall clock as a sculptural object rather than a purely functional instrument, and many designs remain in production today.
