Mid Century Design Transcends Time. Now it Also Tells Time.



George Nelson (1908–1986) was an American industrial designer, and one of the founders of American Modernism.  These charming and quirky clocks are both time pieces and works of art.  Their sleek glass finish is the perfect contrast to the pointillist textural quality of the image.  We love them installed as a trio for maximum visual impact.
