Nelson™ Sunburst Clock

Bring a burst of brilliance to your space with the Nelson™ Sunburst Clock by Vitra—a true icon of mid-century design that combines form, function, and a splash of vintage flair. Crafted by the ingenious George Nelson in 1947, this clock is more than just a way to tell time; it's a statement piece that lights up any room. Nelson's revolutionary idea? Clocks don’t need numbers to be functional or stylish. Observing that people could easily read time by the relative position of the hands, he envisioned clocks as decorative elements for modern interiors. Thus, this clock design emerged in 1949 as part of a trailblazing collection of fourteen distinct timepieces, each embodying a unique and artistic approach to timekeeping.
