The clock’s plywood frame draws inspiration from the structure of a tambourine frame, a design element frequently employed by the clock manufacturer Lemnos across various creations. Opting for minimalism, the design employs lines to convey the hours and minutes, eschewing numerical markers. The juxtaposition of the delicate lines enclosing the clock against the bold and substantial presence of the clock hands establishes a harmonious equilibrium that feels both modern and timeless. It also features a smooth, sweeping second hand with no ticking sound.
Variation:
The clock’s plywood frame is made from a natural material so there will be variation in the grain.
