'The Fan Clock' by Latvia-based designer Stanislav Katz is, quite simply, one beautiful clock.
The design of ‘The Fan Clock’ conjures up visions of a Geisha spreading open one of her delicate fans and peaking over top of, or around, it. Except in this case, the radius point of the clock serves as the Geisha, slowly exposing more of the fan and less of its face as time passes by.
‘The Fan Clock’ would make a wonderful addition to a home with or without oriental decor.
