City Hall Royal wall clock 21cm

Details

The City Hall wall clock was designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1956 for the Rødovre City Hall. It impresses with its simplicity, as the abstract clock face shows the hours in dashes and the minutes in dots.

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% compliance 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…” All AJ clocks from Rosendahl uniquely embody an interesting cross-section of modernism in Arne Jacobsen’s design 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).
