Vitra Orange Ball Clock

Having designed a great number of lighting, homewares and accessories, it is George Nelson's 1950s clocks that best encapsulate the bold style of the mid-century era. At the centre of this design sits a thick disk from which metal stems complete with round sphere create its circular outline. The quirky shape of the clocks silver hands, a cartoon-like arrow and kitsch take on traditional timepieces, also display 1950s forms and add a playful touch to the design.
