Georgios Maridakis and the Porcelain Vase Clock


By Sama Team | November 6, 2009


  Porcelain and a hammer, that's the idea of this Porcelain Vase Clock created by Greek designer (born in Heraklion, so poetic!) Georgios Maridakis. Every hour, the tiny hammer knocks on the vase placed on the stand. Different vases produce different sounds and the vase will shatter, eventually. We loved the concept.   You can also check Maridakis' other designs on his official website.   Only advice: don't that with a Ming vase...

I visited Georgios Maridakis website and he also created another clock looking like wood. Very nice work indeed.

This clock works in an unexpected way, that’s a very good idea but I don’t think he’s going to sell many :)

It’s a very expensive clock if you have to change the vase everyday…. :roll:

He should have done the clock with a glass, less expensive to replace ;)

Horrible clock! Imagine you are awaken by the noise of the vase breaking into thousand of pieces…… Great gift to someone you don’t like :twisted:
