Silhouette Ladro cuckoo clock

Silhouette Ladro cuckoo clock by Pirondini.

The Silhouette Ladro cuckoo clock by Pirondini, designed by Antonio Farina, reinterprets the traditional timepiece through a narrative lens, where time and story unfold in parallel. Crafted from lacquered MDF and complemented by a lacquered metal silhouette, each clock becomes a tableau vivant: three stylised figures—a fisherman, a thief, and a painter—are rendered in delicate, graphic forms, their silent actions frozen in a moment of poetic suspense.The composition of the Silhouette Ladro cuckoo clock is both architectural and whimsical. On one side, the tranquil banks of a river provide the scene for a fisherman casting his line into still waters, evoking quiet contemplation. Elsewhere, a painter, depicted mid-motion, hastens to coat the surface of an unfinished building, the suggestion of urban transformation lingering in the air. In another vignette, a thief glides through a shadowed interior, the subtle tension of his movement animating the room.Each context is seamlessly integrated into the geometric purity of the clock’s lacquered structure, while the minimal silhouettes invite the viewer to imagine the stories beyond the hour. The Silhouette Ladro Pirondini cuckoo clock is designed for both wall and stand display, offering flexibility for diverse interiors. With its refined materials and thoughtful composition, Silhouette Ladro transcends mere function, becoming a quiet observer of daily life—a timekeeper with a narrative presence.
