Clock - Diehl/Junghans - Mid-century modern Porcelain - 1950-1960 - short-term timer

Diehl Electro – Porcelain kitchen clock with integrated short-time timer – Junghans Quartz W756 – Germany, circa 1950s/1960s

Beautiful vintage kitchen clock from the German brand Diehl Electro with an integrated 60-minute short-time timer.

Particularly noteworthy is the high-quality two-tone porcelain case in warm cream and ivory tones. The harmonious color combination, the glossy surface, and the appealing asymmetric design give this clock a distinctive mid-century character. The deliberately offset arrangement of the clock and timer creates a modern and balanced look that remains timeless today.

The curved glass with a brass bezel can be opened to reveal the clearly designed dial. With its generous dimensions of approx. 25 × 18 cm, the clock has a beautiful presence and is suitable as both a functional living object and a decorative collectible.

The clock is in very good original condition. The porcelain shows a lovely shine and only minor age-related signs of use. The glass is well preserved, as are the dial and hands. Only the hand hole and the brass show a small amount of damage and small stains.
