QLOCKTWO - handmade unique timepieces from Schwäbisch Gmünd since 2009. Quality Made in Germany.
It all started with a simple yet ingenious idea: a time display that shows time as man created it. The two artists Marco Biegert and Andreas Funk worked on this idea in their studio for many years. In the end, they created three extraordinary objects that would fundamentally change the way time is displayed and gave birth to the name by which they are known today: QLOCKTWO.
The great success and the increasing demand made changes indispensable. So it was decided to relocate the manufactory to the neighboring Straßdorf. The vacated premises could now be revived by the artists as an art studio.
In order to preserve the core as an art object even in a phase of strong growth, Biegert & Funk introduced the CREATOR‘S EDITION. From then on, their frontcovers were refined by artisans, exclusively numbered and provided with the signature of the two artists – making each object unique.
The most important places of our company are located at three different locations in Schwäbisch Gmünd. The headquarters with the studio of the two artists and founders Marco Biegert and Andreas Funk; our manufactory, where the corpus becomes an art object; and last but not least our Torhaus, which serves as a exhibition and sales area and was our very first store.
In a carpentry workshop, visitors encounter a rustic charm and passionate masters of their trade, who produce the wooden carcasses with great concentration and a fine hand. These are then completed by hand with sophisticated technology and unique fronts and then delivered to our customers worldwide.
Once it has been revealed which object it is, the front cover will undergo an intensive quality check. Letter by letter, every detail is checked. A gentle touch ensures that all edges are smooth and free of protrusions and are perfectly illuminated. The quality of all objects is very important to us, which is why we dedicate the time required to this step. We go through the process slowly, with attention and precision. This is also reflected in our objects and their quality.
Handcrafted in Germany in over 400 hours, the 4TH DIMENSION becomes a symbol of the innovative strength, precision and craftsmanship of German medium-sized companies. The object has a spectacular effect on its viewers because of its handcrafted perfection.
With the QLOCKTWO 4TH DIMENSION, artists and QLOCKTWO founders Biegert & Funk have created an object that makes it possible to experience the dimension of time in a new way. United in this unique work of art, their examination of the relationship between time and space finds a further climax. Viewed from one perspective, the object appears clear and unambiguous. However, if the viewer changes the perspective, time seems to disappear and, by means of 2065 recesses, the full complexity of the work of art emerges. The elaborately hand-polished metal surfaces reflect the events of the surroundings and thus make the viewers aware of the actual here and now.
All QLOCKTWO art objects are handmade at the place of origin in Schwäbisch Gmünd. For the production of our objects we source our resources from regional suppliers. Cohesion in the region is particularly important to us, which is why we do everything we can to strengthen the city of Schwäbisch Gmünd and the region.
