Mawj No.04 - The Grand Wave

MAWJ No.04 - THE GRAND WAVE

Our icon. The clock that started it all.

Mawj No.04 is the purest expression of our philosophy: time should flow. At 70 x 70cm, it is a large, square sculpture carved from a single slab of solid walnut, with deep diagonal waves that move across the surface like wind over desert sand.

There are no numbers. No indices. Just two elegant wooden hands that glide over the grain. This is intentional minimalism — the wood is the dial.

If No.01 was a dune and No.02 was a totem, No.04 is the ocean. From above, the grain looks like a topographic map of currents. It changes every hour as light moves across the carved ridges.

This is our best seller for a reason. It works everywhere — modern living room, Japandi bedroom, boho office, boutique hotel lobby.

THE WOOD

100% solid walnut, sustainably sourced. Walnut is prized for its swirling, marble-like grain — each slab has those signature dark rings and golden ripples you see in the photo. We select slabs with dramatic movement, so no two Grand Waves will ever be the same. No veneer, no MDF, no finger joints.

THE CRAFT

Crafted in our workshop. Each Grand Wave takes two days to complete.

The waves are carved by hand with large gouges, creating that signature flowing relief of 3-4cm depth. We then sand through 5 stages until the peaks are soft and the valleys are smooth. Finished with natural hardwax oil that deepens the walnut to a rich, warm brown and leaves a soft, touchable matte finish.

The wooden hands are handmade to match the body, fitted to a silent, high-torque sweep movement. No ticking. The ultimate quiet luxury.

WHY YOU NEED IT

Most people have a small round clock that disappears on the wall. At 70x70cm, The Grand Wave is the wall. It replaces art. Clients tell us it’s the first thing guests comment on.

Because it has no numbers, it feels timeless — more sculpture than timekeeper. And at this size, it balances perfectly above a sofa, fireplace, or bed.

CARE
