Approching the next Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH), Vacheron Constantin presents in preview a second sublime set of the M\u00e9tiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements serie.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Vacheron Constantin M\u00e9tiers d\u2019Art Fabuleux Ornements collection is an invitation to celebrate the ornamental beauties of the world drawn from the decorative arts of several cultures. Two year after its first launch, the collection unveils four new models born of the art of openworking and a combination of artistic crafts bearing the Hallmark of Geneva.<\/p>\n

Ten different master artisans have provided reinterpretations of Ottoman architecture, Chinese embroidery, Indian manuscripts and French lacework. These creations are equipped with an ethereal hand-engraved movement: calibre ultra-thin 1003 in 18K gold. The finesse of the front-facing d\u00e9cor is precise to the nearest tenth of a millimetre, while on the back Vacheron Constantin has opted for an exclusively chamfered and hand-drawn finish that preserves a restrained appearance.<\/p>\n

Traditional arts meet at the crossroads of different cultures. To highlight this exceptional know-how, the model \u201cIndian manuscript\u201d is created from the alliance of Grand Feu champlev\u00e9 enameling and hand engraving.<\/p>\n

\"M\u00e9tiers<\/p>\n

The \u201cOttoman architecture\u201d timepiece is defined by hand chamfering, purple mother-of-pearl base and a gold grid work studded with half-pearl beads.<\/p>\n

\"M\u00e9tiers<\/p>\n

The \u201cFrench lacework\u201d model is adorned with a translucent hand-guilloch\u00e9 Grand Feu enamelled dial. The base of the gold dial is clad in a guilloch\u00e9 motif lending subtle depth to the transparent enamel and set with garnet-colored sapphires and diamonds.<\/p>\n

\"M\u00e9tiers<\/p>\n

The fourth timepiece \u201cChinese embroidery\u201d is crafted in white gold according to the stone- cloisonn\u00e9 technique with jade. The dial is sculpted from mother-of-pearl and features a pink opal shaped according to the glyptic art and complimented by finely hand engraved gold leaves and pistils.<\/p>\n

\"M\u00e9tiers<\/p>\n

For 260 years, the Manufacture has consistently enhanced the beauty of its creations through artistic crafts. Hand engraving is one such technique. A demanding art calling for exceptional patience and dexterity, it was used right from the start as a means of achieving ethereal lightness. The first watch created by Jean-Marc Vacheron in 1755 already featured an openworked and engraved balance-cock. A master in the practice of this extremely intricate discipline, Vacheron Constantin has given free rein to its creativity, progressively openworking both simple and complicated calibres, associating them according to its inspiration with other artistic crafts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
