Kuno Prey for Danese Milano Concrete Clock 1986
Danese Milano Kuno prey concrete clock. Italy, 1986.
This is a very rare post-modern concrete clock designed by Kuno Prey for the Milanese company Danese. A very distinct and modern design which is remarkably timeless. It was designed in 1986 and represents various aspects of post-modern design and resembles works by the Memphis movement due to its naive appearance and honest construction. It was nominated for a ‘Compasso d’Oro’ in 1987. It is both raw and sophisticated at the same time with a very simple form factor but a natural use of material. The concrete is most likely cast in a mold and shows imperfections. Every clock Danese made is therefore different and unique. It is both a wall clock and a table clock.
A battery powered clockwork is to be found at the back.
Very rare.
Height: 7.88 in. (20 cm)
Width: 7.88 in. (20 cm)
Depth: 1.58 in. (4 cm)
