The Butterfly Clock is inspired by those fleeting moments that fly away faster than one realizes. This whimsical timepiece takes these lost moments and makes something beautiful and poetic out of them. It also shows the importance of savoring the moments when one has a chance.
Created by Berlin-based designer Susanne Philippson for Diamantini & Domeniconi, the Butterfly Clock is more like art than anything else. The way the butterflies detach from the clock is quite imaginative and creative. As her website shares, "Susanne Philippson creates conceptual designs that resonates emotions." This is certainly true with the Butterfly Clock, as it conveys a carefree aesthetic.
The Butterfly Clock is available in nine different colors and stainless steel, and comes in different sizes.
