ABOUT PRODUCTID 15939
This wall clock from the 1960s, originating from Weimar, Germany, is a refined example of mid-century modern functionalism. The construction is based on a precisely crafted square teakwood panel, whose distinct vertical grain imparts natural depth; the light brown finish highlights the organic qualities of the wood. The centrepiece is a matte, golden brass round dial set behind a convex glass cover. Graphic, readable markers define the face: robust black rivets for the hours, finer strokes for the minutes. The absence of numerals and the minimalist wide black hour and minute hands – complemented by a slender black second hand – reinforce the modernist spirit so typical of the era. Clean lines and nearly seamless integration of brass and wood define the structure. The piece is preserved in very good vintage condition, presenting only a gentle patina and subtle traces of use appropriate for its age, with no visible flaws. The form of this clock, devoid of unnecessary embellishment, echoes the geometric order and confidence in a new era that shaped the mid-century period. The teak panel quietly hints at an appreciation for nature and fine craftsmanship, while the matte sheen of brass recalls the optimism of the post-war years. This timepiece seems to narrate a story of balance – between the exactitude of technology and the reassuring rhythm of the everyday. With every minute, it visually balances light against shadow, movement against permanence. The minimalist face seeks no attention, but rather guides the passing of time with a restrained clarity characteristic of the late 1950s and early 1960s.
