A striking vintage postmodern table clock featuring a playful abstract facial design, colourful translucent accents and an unusual asymmetrical sculptural form.
Inspired by the bold geometric designs of the Memphis movement, this decorative clock combines sweeping curves, vivid colours and stylised facial features against a silver-toned metal body.
The design incorporates contrasting green, purple, blue, red and yellow accents, creating a distinctive artistic composition reminiscent of late 20th-century Italian postmodern design.
At the centre is a circular quartz clock with traditional Roman numerals, contrasting beautifully with the contemporary abstract surrounding artwork.
The clock is fitted with a Young Town 12888 quartz movement, operated by a 1.5V battery.
Perfect for a desk, bedside table, bookshelf or collector's display, this unusual piece combines practical timekeeping with playful sculptural design.
