Clocks serve the supremely important task of measuring time, an ephemeral, invisible yet most definitely impacting reality. All that’s required to manage the concept of time is an hour, second and minute hand rotating around a 12-hour dial. But for those with the soul of an artist who seek a tighter connection, you may want to invest in a Medusa Clock. The firm of MB&F, known for outlandish and impassioned watches, has joined forces with Swiss clockmaker L’Epee to create a better way to monitor time. The Medusa consists of an intricate 2.5 Hz/18,000 vph movement pulsating beneath a transparent dome of hand-blown glass taking the form of a jellyfish. Inside, two rotating dials, one for the hour, the other dedicated to minutes. Four legs raise it above the table or desk, giving it the look of an alien that has only recently crawled from its UFO or the depths of the sea; MBandF.com.

Shot at the Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Still Waters is an introduction to the women who build their businesses stitch by stitch, bead by bead, and to the women who wear them. Not because she was told to, but because she knows the difference.
