Clock Design for Mr. Jones

Hannah Davies has created a magnificent artwork for the dial of her Mr. Jones clock. To celebrate London Design Week 2012 Mr. Jones Watches has collaborated with four of their favourite illustrators and a photographer to create a bespoke series of Cyclops clocks. The very unique time pieces are being auctioned in aid of the charity Kids Company.

The client says " We are thrilled with the results and each unique clock is being auctioned on ebay. All the money raised will be donated to Kids Company so please bid generously to support this great charity and be the lucky owner of a completely unique clock. The auction ends September 26th so get bidding to be in with a chance to win!"

Hannah says of the commission "My inspiration was retro 60's shapes and psychedelic colours. I wanted to bring vibrant, detailed decoration into peoples lives."

Lets hope they raise lots of cash for a great cause.
