What is time? What is memory? What is reality? These are some pretty deep thoughts, which we can’t even begin to answer in just a few short paragraphs. But these thoughts lead the famed Spanish surrealist artist and ornate clothes lover Salvador Dali to create his most lasting image, that of the slowly melting clock.

To Dali, this was an unconscious symbol of the relativity of space and time, a Surrealist meditation on the collapse of our notions of a fixed cosmic order. To us, they just look really cool and awesome!

This particular melting clock continues to keep the accurate time using quartz precision movement. It has a pleasing chrome trim and can balance perfectly on the edge of any flat surface. You don’t even need to use it as a time piece, as it makes a uniquely creative counter or mantle piece.

Don’t let time slip away for you, and get this amazing melting clock today!
