Braun 4748 Vintage alarm clock designed by Dieter Rams - Germany 1980

An icon of German design, this Braun model 4748 table alarm clock is a true testament to the design philosophy of Dieter Rams, a master of functional and minimalist design. Made in Germany in the 1980s, this quartz alarm clock embodies the perfect balance between aesthetics and utility. The compact, slanted white plastic body houses a simple, easily readable circular dial with black numbers on a white background and the unmistakable orange seconds hand, a distinctive color detail of Braun creations.

The piece retains the signature "Less, but better" design approach, with clean lines and materials built to last. The integrated top button for snooze and alarm reflects an ergonomic design, designed for everyday use. The back houses the battery compartment and the time and alarm settings. The piece shows signs of wear consistent with its age, but is in excellent overall condition and fully functional.

This piece represents one of the most beloved creations among industrial design enthusiasts and collectors of original Braun objects. It's ideal for stylishly decorating a bedside table, study, or desk, but also for enriching collections dedicated to 20th-century design.
