"Pink Butterfly" Rare Handcrafts Rose Gold Alligator Leather 38mm

This limited edition of ten watches in rose gold expresses the chromatic beauty of an encounter between the blooms of the bearded iris and the airy lightness and grace of a monarch butterfly. Tracing the contours of the petals and the butterfly in Grand Feu cloisonné enamel called for about 55 cm of gold wire (~0.23 g). The enameller then displayed his outstanding mastery of the art of gradations and shading, working with a palette of transparent, opaque and semi-opaque enamels in 23 colors, and integrating tiny beads of white enamel on the butterfly’s wings, to create depth effects in the scene and an impression of volume in the iris flowers.
