Bankers wall clock 29cm

Details

The Arne Jacobsen wall clock classics are back! When Arne Jacobsen designed the Bankers Clock for the Danish National Bank in 1971, he also created a design icon for the home. The wall clock is still produced today according to the original drawings. The clock case with its concave glass front gives the clock the feeling that it is floating on the wall. A great gift idea for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, students and other occasions.

Arne Jacobsen is probably the most famous Danish architect and designer. Legendär interior designs made Jacobsen famous far beyond the borders of Denmark. The Rosendahl company has acquired the rights to re-produce Arne Jacobsen’s most famous wall clocks and has now re-issued them in 100% conformity with the original designs and in meticulous collaboration with Teit Weylandt. Teit Weylandt worked for a long time in the product development department of Arne Jacobsen’s design studio and paid attention to every detail during the re-production of the clocks: “No stone was left unturned: the hands, the case, the shape of the lens – we went through everything…”

The Bankers clock by Arne Jacobsen was originally designed for the National Bank of Denmark building in 1971. The most recent of the three designs shows an abstract clock face, in which instead of numbers – a bar divided into twelve sectors – indicates the number of hours, in which the dot is offset by one sector per hour. Overall, the dial thus shows a spiral shape from one to twelve o’clock. All AJ clocks from Rosendahl uniquely embody an interesting cross-section of modern design by Arne Jacobsen over a period of 30 years. The clock cases are made of aluminum and mineral glass. The movement comes from Japan and is powered by an AA battery (1.5 V).
