Edition 003 clock by Jamie Wolfond Studios explores minimalism through a continuous sheet of stainless steel joined by twelve welds. These points function as both the hour markers and the structural anchors, creating subtle distortions that shift under light. The result is a wall object that feels precise yet fluid, balancing industrial fabrication with quiet sculptural presence.
The design measures 28.5 × 28.5 × 4 cm and is produced in an edition of fifty pieces. SAE 304 steel is paired with slim aluminium and plastic hands, while a single AA battery drives the movement. Priced at USD $280, the clock offers an accessible entry point into collectible design. Edition 003 clock demonstrates how restraint and material honesty can elevate a functional object into an artwork for daily life.
