Design: George Nelson, 1947-1953
Concept: The diamond-shaped watch from the iconic designer George Nelson, with its dark and stylish design, is a timeless and eye-catching watch. The robustly designed watch case in solid walnut provides a nice contrast to the slender brass legs and creates a contrast that rests nicely in each other's arms. With its classic design, the Diamond watch will fit perfectly on the shelf in the living room or on the side table by the sofa and create a beautiful eye-catcher in games in the room. 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.
