A timer that looks like a piece of sculpture. Bengt Ek's copper-plated timer has a rounded, bullet-like body with the dial set into its face, so it reads clearly and catches the light on the counter.
The Design Story
The streamlined shape recalls mid-century instruments, and the warm copper finish pairs with brass taps, copper pans and natural stone. Inside, a simple wind-up mechanism counts down up to an hour without batteries.
Why You'll Love It
Warm copper finish that suits modern and classic kitchens.
Angled face that's easy to read from across the room.
Wind-up mechanism, no batteries.
Where It's Best Placed
Beside a copper pan rack, an espresso machine or a brass faucet.
On a desk or bar cart as a quiet statement object.
