Description from the seller
Vintage Postmodern Table Clock – Memphis / Space Age Design – 1980s – Quartz
Description
Very decorative vintage table clock from the postmodern period, with a striking geometric design and a bold color palette. The combination of red, cobalt blue, turquoise and yellow gives the clock a typical 1980s look that strongly aligns with the Memphis and postmodern design movement.
The clock is composed of several overlapping geometric shapes, giving it almost the appearance of a small sculptural object. The yellow dial is paired with contrasting colorful hands and black hour markers.
The design fits perfectly within a Memphis-, postmodern, Space Age or eclectic interior and is a particularly decorative piece for collectors of vintage plastic design.
