The Invotis Wall Gear Clock is like something from a physics problem from hell. If one cog with a diameter of 2cm with teeth spaced at 3.5mm rotates with a velocity of 3.1415degrees/min against a cog 32% larger attached to a 8 gauge shaft that rotates with a frequency of 9hz what time is it? The Wall Gear Clock is much simpler than all that with a large display of 56cm and catchy open construction you can proudly tack this gizmo to any wall. And you don’t have to worry, the smooth slow function works quietly so you won’t feel like your inside a transmission case.

This beveled edge 18” solid stone carved sink bowl is really an epic piece. With its rough exterior reminiscent of a moonscape and the polished sheen of the bowl interior this granite monument to hygiene will impress the most discerning of guests. Using natural materials in areas of the house otherwise dominated by manmade surfaces gives a profound depth to the space. Prices vary as each piece is unique. All that being said you will still have to scrub your dried toothpaste off it!

By Argentinean designer Batti we get the Placentero Chair. Inspired by the imagined experience of being in the womb (it’s even the right color) the Placentero will let you rock into a fetal bliss in a multitude of different positions. Using eco-friendly leather, fiberglass, and plastic (just like mommy!) the design is one of a kind. So sit back and relax, because you’ll need to after coughing up this kind of loot!

Illuminate your crib with a Giancarlo Mattioli’s 1967 designer Nesso lamp. This piece can be found in New York’s MET, the MOMA, and in the Museo del Design Italiano Milan.

Measuring from just less than 2ft by 1ft and made from molded thermoplastic the Nesso Lamp is a superb fixture.
