Description from the seller

Very rare neon wall clock from Present Time – Postmodern Memphis style, ca. 1985-1995
An impressive and extremely rare piece from the heyday of postmodernism. This wall clock is a textbook example of Memphis Milano-inspired design, with a sleek black square frame as dramatic background for the graphic elements.
The clock is characterized by the unique lightning-shaped white hands and two sharp, architectural neon tubes in contrasting red and white. Unlike many other neon clocks, this particular geometric composition is seldom on the market, making this a true collector’s item for fans of 80s and 90s interior design.
Brand: Present Time
Style: Postmodern / Memphis
Period: ca. 1985-1995
Dimensions: approx. 38.5 x 38.5 cm x 8 cm
Condition: good vintage condition. The neon lighting works perfectly and provides a bright, uniform glow. The black frame and the clock mechanism are in good used condition (see photos for details).
Power: Includes original cable.
A real eye-catcher for any modern interior or high-end design collection.
