Rendered in ceramic and bent wire "drawings", the skeletal representations of solid forms are executed in various metals and finishes such as oxidized copper, shiny copper, anodized metals in colors, matte silver and even real gold-plated copper.
dimensions: 13.3" x 5.5", height: 16"
Prices range from $2,500 to $4,200.00 (for the gold-plated copper edition). To see the whole range of 14 finishes and to purchase, go here

Not a stranger to clock designs, Kiki has also made these wonderful mantel clocks:
Kiki van Eijk (born 1978, the Netherlands) graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2000. She is frequently asked to design interiors for both residential and commercial projects, to act as Art Director for exhibitions, to create exhibit designs for galleries, museums and schools, and she has designed products for the ceramics producer Cor Unum and the industrial design manufactory Moooi, the Netherlands. In addition, she has developed several collections which are produced through her own studio. Her work has been featured in numerous exhibitions worldwide, most recently during the 2010 Salone del Mobile, Milan, in an exhibition presented by the Zeiderzee Museum. Van Eijk lives and works in Eindhoven.
