Homo Faber’s ‘Discovery and Rediscovery’ section is the place for those wanting to look behind the scenes and solve some of the most astonishing decoration mysteries. We were delighted to learn about the sculpture-like grisaille visuals reproduced on enamel at Vacheron Constantin.
Homo Faber, an unprecedented and spectacular showcase of European craftsmanship is coming up between 14-30 September in Venice, Italy. What makes it so hot? We’ll see it first hand, but until then, here’s some preliminary info.
In the Métiers d’art Les Aérostiers collection presented, Vacheron Constantin paid tribute to fearless balloonists of the 19th century. We met the sculpted conquerors of the air floating in translucent ‘plique-à-jour’ enamel at SIHH 2018.
Rumours were already circulating before the SIHH 2018 about a new “entry-level” watch line from Vacheron Constantin. Entry in Vacheron’s terms is of course somewhat different from many other players on the market. Discover the FIFTYSIX with us.
PRESS RELEASE: Vacheron Constantin pays tribure to the journey of fearless balloonists (aérostiers in French) to defying gravity with The Métiers d’art Les Aérostiers collection at SIHH 2018.
In this article we focus on Phillips’ first major US watch auction, which lines up models from the 20th century that set a certain trend, or stood out with their character or with their extreme rarity. Let me show you a few “Winning Icons” I found particularly moving.
