Deskspace Solar System Desk Accessory

A clear starry night is a source of limitless inspiration and beauty. So, why not invite the universe into your workspace? Fortunately, the designers of DeskX already asked the very same question. Their answer is a meticulously crafted model solar system to brighten your desk and guide your workflow. “We are three designers who all have three things in common–a love of design, a fascination with space, and jobs that keep us tied to our desks,” DeskX explains. “We wanted to create a desktop accessory that brought together our design skills with our interests. Something that would allow us to have a small vision of how our environment sits within the universe.”

DeskX's efforts culminated in two spectacular projects: the Deskspace Planetary System and the Deskspace Solar System Series With Sun Lamp. Both office accessories feature nine different gemstones that are polished into spheres to represent each planet in our solar system. DeskX was adamant in its search for the perfect materials. “We visited factories and suppliers worldwide and even cross-referenced NASA satellite images with the finished products to ensure they are as accurate as they are stunning,” explained the designers. Case in point, the model of Mars is made from Mahogany Obsidian, Earth is made from Sodalite, and Jupiter from Tiger Eye. Each miniature celestial body shines with mineral beauty, at any time of day. Additionally, the Planetary System comes with an elegant walnut wood base for ease of display and felt polishing cloth to maintain the set's shine.

Separating these two spectacular office accessories by DeskX is the magical Sun Mood Lamp that is included in the Deskspace Solar System Series. This brilliant orb is made from Golden Calcite, a substance noted for its texture and clarity. When plugged in, light cloaks the sphere and radiates the room to cast a soothing glow on your workspace. Marvel at the astrological beauty captured in this sun and planets collection. The Solar System set includes an aluminum base and magnetic charging cable, as well as an information booklet about the sun and solar system, and felt polishing cloth.

You can find both the Deskspace Solar System Series With Sun Lamp and the Deskspace Planetary System Series sets in My Modern Met Store.
