The Arne Jacobsen wall-clock-classics are back – and now also as table clocks!

Arne Jacobsen is the maybe most famous Danish architect and designer. Legendary furnishing-designs made Jacobsen popular in Denmark and further away.

The Rosendahl company bought the rights for the Re-Production of the most famous wall-clocks by Arne Jacobsen and re-edited them now in 100% compliance with the original designs and in meticulous cooperation with Teit Weylandt. Teit Weylandt has worked for Arne Jacobsen’s product development during a long time and he focused on every small detail for the re-production of the clocks: ”Not a stone stayed on another: the pointers, the housing, the form of the lens – we studied everything…”

The results are three legendary clock-classics that originally ornamented Danish buildings.

AJ Roman wall clock

The Roman wall clock emerged as most ancient design out of the 1942. It has been designed by Arne Jacobsen for the Aarhus City Hall. The embossing Roman numbers are not responsible for the name of this clock, but also create a classic appeal.

All AJ clocks by Rosendahl embody an interesting diagonal cut on a unique way in the design of Arne Jacobsen along a period of 30 years. The housing of the clocks consists of aluminium and mineral glass. The clockwork came from Japan and is powered by a AA-battery (1.5V).
