Product information

Design: George Nelson, 1949

Concept: Ball Clock is the eccentric but fascinating result of an experiment at Vitra's graphic workshop. It was made by George Nelson in 1949. Ball Clock got its name from the ball floating in the air above the surface of the clock - Like a billiard ball floating in the air. The combination of the quartz movement and the level of detail in the design makes the watch extremely functional and adorns the wall decoratively at the same time. This eye-catching wall clock will both decorate the home and be a conversation maker for guests whose gaze will be caught. The watch is delivered incl. 1 piece. 1.5 volt battery.

The story behind: In the years 1948-1960, George Nelson and his staff designed more than 150 watches for the American watchmaker Howard Miller. The collection consists of a mixture of wall clocks and table clocks, with the common features that the shapes are played freely and that none of the clocks have numbers on the dial. By examining the modern approach to the use of clocks, Nelson came to the conclusion that one was no longer dependent on the numbers on the dial, but rather read the position of the hands. In addition, he argued that most people went with wristwatches, which is why the watch in the home had become a piece of design more than a functional object.
