Official description
This piece was inspired from the Japanese art of Kintsugi (金継ぎ), which consists in repairing broken objects with gold. A profoundly inspiring philosophy: Kintsugi considers that scars carry stories that deserve to be valued. The story of this piece thus transcends physical mechanics and plunges its readers into the realm ofphilosophical contemplation. With its exposed fractures, this timepiece bears witness to the passage of time.
Like the tribulations of life that shape us, this unique creation pays tribute to the journey it has undertaken - a transformative odyssey where it has been intentionally broken, only to emerge even more precious and captivating. The impact marks on the rings and the movement are handmade by a craftsman watchmaker who achieves a hammered effect finish on the bridges, the plate, and the symbolic rings. The damaged parts are then gilded by hand with gold leaves.
