Muku Desk Clock: Esche

This walnut desk clock makes use of wood discarded during clock frame manufacturing processes. Each clock takes on the grain of the individual piece of wood used to carve it, meaning no two are entirely identical. The numbers around the edge are branded into the exposed wooden clock face, and its hands move completely silently for a more tranquil experience of time’s passing. The clock is angled so that its round face appears to be floating on top of the desk or table on which it rests.

Chūbu

The central Chūbu region is predominantly mountainous, home to the rugged Japan Alps with coasts on both the Sea of Japan and the Pacific Ocean. The region's history has been shaped by its strategic position between the great cities of Kyoto and Tokyo with Nagoya at its heart. Niigata lies to the north while Mt Fuji can be found in the south in Shizuoka Prefecture.
