Master of times

THE EVERGREENS...


The evergreens....objects, personal accessories, colors, foods ..things that lasts through the years and keep accompanying our days through the future. Things that people like us invented, things that were born from an idea, a dream, a passion or just a simple bright ray of light in our mind. Things that are reinvented, revisited, reimagined but still keep their old fascinating style and core purpose.

We got one of these precious things: Forest.


Forest represents the past and the future in a sole combination of modern design and classic style. It is a precious cuckoo clock, part of our cuckoo collection which still impress and enchant with its design, reminding the classic old style cuckoo of our grand parents homes. When customers look at Forest they immediately smile and tell us about their grand grand parents old houses and storytellings. They remember these old big loud wooden cuckoos hanging on the walls that almost scared these little kids.






Forest keeps these memories alive and put a thin connection line between traditions and modernity, past and present, carefree days of youth and busy working days of our adult life.
























So give back a piece of that past throught this wonderful gift, to your parents, or grand parents, relatives or just friends.
