My Nixie clocks are crafted in my workshop with passion, each unique piece embodying the elegance of wood, carbon, resin and the retro-futuristic technology of Nixie tubes
Let yourself be enchanted by the perfect marriage of exceptional craftsmanship and innovation.
This is a type of gas-discharge display tube used mainly in older electronic devices, such as meters, clocks and measuring equipment. They were popular from the 1950s to the 1970s
A Nixie tube consists of a series of number-shaped cathodes (usually 0 to 9) arranged one behind the other. Each digit is formed by a cathode filament, surrounded by an anode (grid). When voltage is applied to a pair of cathode-anode electrodes, the gas inside the tube ionizes, creating a visible glow around the cathode.
Nixie tubes offer a unique retro aesthetic with their soft lighting and distinctive appearance. However, due to the complexity of their manufacture and the advent of more modern display technologies, such as liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), Nixie tubes have been largely replaced in commercial applications.
But their unique and fascinating beauty allows me to make a superb clock with vintage charm.
The small IN14 tubes I find from mainly Ukrainian suppliers. These tubes come from old, unused stocks. They date from the 70s and 80s, so they're over 40 years old, but they're still new because they've never been used. The tube measures around 5cm. Unfortunately, they're getting harder and harder to find, and more and more expensive. I've still got a bit of stock left, but hurry up and order.
The large model is the best in the business. With a height of around 15cm, they are nowhere to be found on the vintage tube market, but fortunately 2 craftsmen have started producing them again with the know-how of the old-timers. Precision hand-crafted by a Ukrainian artisan, they have a life expectancy of 20 years.
Treat yourself to a unique, timeless object, handcrafted in France from the finest materials. Because you deserve the best, personalize it according to your preferences and values.
