Arne Jacobsen Clocks

The AJ Clocks

LK table clock by Arne Jacobsen

The architect and designer Arne Jacobsen is one of the most important protagonists of Scandinavian design. In addition to important buildings, his work includes numerous pieces of furniture, product and interior designs, which he often developed especially for his architectural designs. Whether in large or, as with the Arne Jacobsen clocks, on a small scale - Jacobsen's precise, functional forms shaped an aesthetics that was innovative and ahead of its time, and is still trend-setting today. The legendary AJ clocks were created over a period of about 30 years and were to be used in various public buildings in Denmark, including some for which Jacobsen was the architect himself. For example, in 1942 the Roman Clock was created for Aarhus Town Hall, Jacobsen developed the City Hall Clock for Rodovere Town Hall in 1956, and the Bankers Clock was built in 1971 for the National Bank of Denmark. Today, the high quality AJ watches are faithfully re-issued by Rosendahl and are due to their simple, precise design still reliable time keepers and aesthetic eye-catchers in one. Rosendahl holds the exclusive production licenses and adheres to Arne Jacobsen's designs during production.
