Manufacturer: Vitra | Designer: George Nelson, 1949–1960

The Most Iconic of the Nelson Clocks

One of the original 14 clock designs launched in 1949, the Ball Clock replaces numerals with twelve wooden spheres arranged around a central hub. George Nelson's simple observation that people recognise the position of the hands without needing numbers resulted in a playful, almost planetary composition that became an icon of postwar design.

At Ø33cm, it brings a clear focal point to a kitchen, living room or workspace. Multi Coloured, Orange and Red make an expressive statement, Natural and Cherry introduce the warmth of timber, while Black & Brass gives the design a sharper metallic character. As one of the most recognisable pieces of mid-century design, it also makes a memorable housewarming or wedding gift. Vitra has produced the Nelson Clocks since 1999 as part of the Vitra Design Museum Collection.
