Limited Time Offer! Massive Price Reduction for 3 Days Only! This is a highly refined art object made of Lucite (acrylic optical resin), born during the heyday of mid-century modern design in 1960s America. Inside the thick, transparent Lucite, genuine American coins (cents, nickels, and quarters) are encased, with a three-dimensional glass hourglass motif placed at the center. More than just a decorative item, this is a conceptual art piece characteristic of 1960s America, simultaneously encapsulating "time (hourglass)" and "value (coins)." It was originally created for the high-end desk accessory/art glass market of the time. The structure, which makes the coins appear to float and the hourglass seem suspended in mid-air depending on how the light hits it, is a testament to the craftsmanship and material quality that cannot be replicated in modern mass-produced items. Size: Approximately 10cm x 4.5cm in height, weight approximately 460g. It has a very substantial presence, and simply placing it on a desk, in a study, or on a gallery shelf elevates the space. This is a typical mid-century Lucite piece from the 1960s-70s, a genre that is now traded as a collector's item in the overseas art glass and design object market. It is a type that is rarely distributed in Japan, an art object that "those in the know will recognize at a glance." --- ■ Specifications ・Era: 1970s (estimated) ・Material: Lucite (acrylic optical resin) + glass ・Internal: Coins + glass hourglass motif ・Size: Approximately 10cm x 4.5cm ・Weight: Approximately 460g --- ■ Recommended for: ・Those who love mid-century design ・Those who like US vintage, Eames, and Knoll styles ・Those who want to place a "meaningful object" on their desk or in their study ・Collectors who seek both artistic value and asset value There is a slight scratch, as seen in the fifth photo from the bottom.
