Herstory 【butterfly】Inspired by the Morpho butterfly

“Herstory” is “her story of pursuing her dream.” True to its name, this clock is designed to tell a story about a girl getting closer to her “dream” every hour. Symbolic motifs of “dreams”—a balloon, butterfly, and shooting star—are strategically placed at the 12 o’clock position on the clock face. When the girl on the minute hand progresses towards these motifs, it creates the visual effect of her reaching out to catch them. -------------------------------------------- <balloon> https://jp.pinkoi.com/product/uktrhtDv <shooting star> https://jp.pinkoi.com/product/uVbUZqwy -------------------------------------------- The hour hand serves as the girl’s “shadow,” symbolizing her “past,” while the minute hand signifies her “present” as she moves forward, overcoming various “pasts. The designer wishes to “support bright women around the world” by offering them an avenue to manifest their own “dreams” through the motif, integrate the clock into their daily lives, and envision the “future.” The numerical indicators on the clock face feature an original font drawn by the designer, evoking the flow of air like a gentle breeze, lending the motif a dynamic sense of movement. The English text just below the center reads: “Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.” The quote by Danish philosopher and thinker Søren Kierkegaard serves as a motivating message, encouraging women to stride towards their “dreams.” Place the clock on or near your desk and enjoy the heartwarming experience of reading her story unfolding behind the glass. ●Size: φ200mm × d40mm ●Weight: 430g ●Material: Aluminum, Glass, Wood ●Accessories: ・Box / Stand (can be used as a desk clock) ・AA battery ・Screw (for wall mounting) ・Booklet* *Dream Booklet for Your New Time (Write your dreams and wishes in the booklet, and let your unique story clock move forward).

Whether it's building a career within a company, starting a business and successfully running it, or using social media to showcase themselves, there are numerous opportunities to turn dreams into reality. (In Japan, since 2022, legislation has made it easier for men to take paternity leave, facilitating the return of women in child-rearing stages to the workforce.) I created these clocks with the hope that it will be a companion to women who are striving daily to achieve their dreams and walk alongside them. --- Life moves forward, whether it's filled with joy or sadness, success or failure. To you, who continue to move forward, overcoming various past experiences and striving towards your dreams and hopes. I hope that this clock will be with you every day, gently supporting you. Let's create a new future together with this clock. Now, your story begins.
