Let the Mint Boys Tell Time

August 25th, 2010

Marionette Clock By Jongchul KimIn order to remind us of time passing by, we need some nice time pieces. As time passing by is not really a very happy thing, so we should try our best to make it happier, like using a really cute time piece like this Marionette Clock. Designed by Jongchul Kim, these two cute Mint boys will tell us time by some interesting sports.

From Robotic Hands Clock to Bungee Jumping Mint Clock, Korean designer Jongchul Kim has surprised us with really amazing clocks. And right here is another wall clock that you’ll fancy. It’s the Marionette Clock, which shows time with its hanging hand that is hooked up with the string to two Mint Boys at the top. So as the Mint Boys ride their unicycles, the vertical wire length will be changed, and the time will then be displayed. Really interesting, isn’t it?

I think this wall clock is really really cute, now time do pass merrily, right?
