Other Criteria is bringing high art to the masses with the Damien Hirst Large Spot Clock. Hirst is an art world heavyweight whose work is usually priced well out of reach of the typical consumer.
Other Criteria has changed this, however, using his famous spot paintings for inspiration in the Damien Hirst Large Spot Clock. The clock retails for £475.00, a steal compared to his original art.
The Hirst clock is made out of a white powdered metal case, and features Hirst’s signature on the front of the clock. Fans can pick up the clock at OtherCriteria.com, and at the Other Criteria shops at 36 New Bond Street, and 14 Hinde Street, in London.
