Spring Forward


Time flies when you are busy being stylish....it’s now time to spring ahead and change all those clocks. We decided to share some of our favourite timely timepieces.

George Nelson Ball Clock



With the diversity of materials used and their sculptural shapes, George Nelson clocks embody the joie de vivre of the 1950s. To this day, his wall clocks, including the George Nelson Ball Clock, remain a refreshing alternative to the usual timekeepers. The Vitra Design Museum presents a re-edition of the designs so cherished by collectors - in a true-to-the-original form. A mid-century modern classic!
