Kifuku
Rivers, oceans, hills, and mountains.
There are many ups and downs in nature.
Some are very small,
and some are overwhelmingly large.
Some are created in an instant and disappear,
while others are formed over an epic period of time.
The ups and downs express the workings of nature,
and indicate the passage of time through their shapes.
Kifuku is a clock that features waves as its motif.
The moment when water ripples in the wind has been cut out and arranged in a circle.
The shadows stretching across the dent from the raised area create a gradation, gently conveying the passage of time.
Clouded Moon / Jupiter
Clouded Moon and Jupiter are made of porcelain with flowing relief lines. The clock’s surface is split by curved lines while the circumference is divided into 12 equal parts.
The beauty of the celestial wonders are captured and imagined as clocks through the craftsmanship of Lemnos and made in Porcelain.
The large curved lines of Clouded Moon express a quiet scene of clouds across a full moon. The winding lines of Jupiter convey a sense of dynamism, like the gas planet Jupiter. The moist and fine porcelain material retains its beautiful texture forever.
Made with white Porcelain by Lemnos craftsmen. Designed by Noriko Hashida, Jury member for the Good Design Awards and Kids Design Awards.
