The playful "Panic!" button was once installed by Kare on her keyboard - a whimsical nod to the idea of escaping the pressures of modern society. "Panic 1" features the original concept in written form, blending urgency and humour.
This physical piece is made in silver with oxidisation, handcrafted by the Asprey Studio Workshop. The icon was designed by Susan Kare as part of the Esc Keys collection in collaboration with Asprey Studio.
