Carl Auböck Model #3855 Brass 'Atom' Desk Clock.
Designed in the 1950s, this incredibly refined and sculptural Viennese desk clock is executed in polished and darkly patinated brass by Werkstätte Carl Auböck, Austria. This is a version of the 'atom' vase design adapted as a sculptural timepiece with a battery-operated clock mechanism.
Produced by Carl Auböck IV in the original Auböck workshop in the 7th district of Vienna using the same exacting standards, high-quality materials, original molds, and techniques of his legendary namesake. Auböck's design career was long and varied, reaching its pinnacle of prestige at the Triennale di Milano in 1954, where he received four gold medals in recognition of his iconic work.
