Bitter End

Bitter End clamps a steel watch around a crushed orange soda can, holding the last second of something that was only ever meant to be finished and thrown away.About the designBright orange foil folds into hard creases, thin navy stripes running above and below the crush, the aluminum top still intact and catching a cold highlight. The watch is the counterweight: a clean white dial, black markers, and a single orange arrow hand that picks the can's color straight back up. The portrait frame sits on a burnt amber ground that keeps the whole thing warm.Where it worksThe orange carries a room, so it does its best work on a quiet wall in a home office, a study, or a game room where a single strong color is welcome. It pairs well with charcoal, walnut, and tan leather, and it reads as a gift for someone with a taste for tool watches. It sits comfortably among our home office canvas art.Part of the watches collectionBitter End is part of our watch inspired canvas art collection, built around fine timepieces and the throwaway objects they get set against. Every canvas is gallery wrapped on a solid pine frame and arrives ready to hang, with an optional floating frame in black, white, or gold.
