ABOUT PRODUCTID 15612
This German wall clock from the 1960s exemplifies the interplay of geometry, contrast, and craftsmanship so characteristic of mid-century modern style. Crafted from brass and steel, it features a warm, brushed brass central disc with a subtly matte finish. Surrounding it, white triangles arranged within a black steel ring form a precise optical lattice, with the triangles gradually diminishing in size toward the center, creating a sense of dimensional depth. The black, scalloped steel rim is punctuated by evenly spaced, round brass studs at each hour mark—combining decorative appeal with utility. Black, slender hands with period-typical arrow and spade motifs reinforce the clock’s historic mid-century pedigree. Visible fasteners and careful detailing attest to the quality construction, with compact dimensions (31 × 31 × 5 cm). Condition is very good, with original patina and delicate traces of use, consistent with authentic vintage items. This clock’s form speaks the visual language of its time: every line and marker sets the rhythm of daily life, recording the passing hours in tones of gold, black, and white—colors favored in the 1960s quest for clarity and poised harmony. The brass highlights evoke durability and purposeful functionality, while the intricate geometric lattice conjures the deep visual field beloved by mid-century modern thinking, inviting reflection as much as timekeeping. It is an object that might quietly ask: is design not the most refined way to domesticate
