![This clock has a layered, terraced shape like a pyramid or ziggurat. The staggered, angular forms seem to rise up and out from the stepped, footed rectangular base. The flat faces of some forms are decorated with bright robin’s egg blue, deep ultramarine blue, or black enamel; the rest of the clock is bright silvered bronze. The shape leading up to the round clock face is a tall narrow deep blue rectangle. Two flanking shapes, in bright blue and deep blue, angle out diagonally beneath the clock face. Small shapes in black and bright blue crown the top of the clock face. The small round cream-colored clock face has pale pink, deep blue, and black dots and triangles indicating the hours. Narrow triangles at 12, 4, and 8 point in toward the straight black clock hands. These shapes are repeated in the two patterned round accents below the clock face, with enamelled angular lines, circles, and half-circles in bright blue, deep blue, white, and black. The clock is incised at bottom right with the signature [JEAN GOULDEN].](https://images.collection.cooperhewitt.org/325225_b039163646e96c7c_n.jpg "Object ID #907130271")
