Agree
I like the clock, but I agree that the stools are a way overpriced(Barcelona chair makes me sick). I found all this stuff on Retromodern.com.

How did you find the prices?
Prices don't seem to be listed on Vitra's site-- does one have to inquire? I'd like to buy one of those Dorothee Becker plastic wall pockets as a gift, if I can afford it.

Site links
I couldn't find them on Vitra either, found that weird. I was bored and looking around, then looked through New items on the website below. Here are the two links:

The clock is on the Vitra website
but it's hidden. Go to the clocks and click on the blue version of this clock 9which has been available for awhile) and it'll show that they added this option without any fanfare.

Velocity site lists prices
The "Uten.Silo"(plastic wall pocket) sells for $395. Gulp. (My pal won't be receiving this as a housewarming gift.)
Why $400? Why the baffling "." between "Uten" and "Silo"? (Shopping that site made me feel wretchedly poor and middle class!) Even the wee chair miniatures are way beyond my means.
