About This Item

• Three floating cylinders on curved metal stand. The three rotating cylinders appear to float on the curved metal support arm — a visual effect that gives the calendar a sense of lightness and elegance despite its 500g / 1.1 lbs presence. The floating aesthetic is the defining design feature.
• Tactile cylinder rotation — month, date, day of week. Each cylinder rotates independently to display the current month, date, and day of week. The rotation is smooth and deliberate — a satisfying morning ritual that takes seconds.
• Cherry Wood Color or Lucky Red. Cherry Wood Color features a solid wood base in warm walnut tones with natural wood cylinders — a warm, classic aesthetic. Lucky Red features a black base with red-accented cylinders — a bold, auspicious aesthetic popular for Feng Shui and Chinese New Year gifting.
• Retro vintage aesthetic. The curved metal stand and cylinder format reference mid-century desk design — a timeless aesthetic that works in both classic and contemporary office environments.
• Free custom engraving (up to 15 characters). Names, dates, or short messages engraved on the wooden base.
