When it comes to these ultra thin horizontal designs, I clearly can’t help myself. It’s what continues to appear under my pencil, and I like them, so I keep making them. This is the latest clock that falls into that category. One new element I stumbled onto when designing this one is the way the romans kind of erode and taper into illegible ruins around the 4-5:00 position. I really like that effect, and this might be the start of a look that gets used in future work.

“Thin Horizon” is a unique 1 of 1 design. It was cut out of brass sheet, assembled with hand-threaded brass screws, and hand sculpted with a rotary grinder. The dial and blades of the hands are acrylic and oil on weathered kitkata rice paper.
