1. Non là ceramic table clocks [source]
Milan-based Studio Klass have created the Non là ceramic table clocks for Diamantini & Domeniconi. “Non là is a ceramic table clock with conical shape, inspired by the famous straw hat – Nón lá in vietnamese – and usually used by Asian people to protect themselves from sun and rain. The form comes also from a functional aspect: when the watch is placed on the table, the base of the cone – on which the quadrant is on – is tilted, thus facilitating the reading time.”
