"Brown Owl" Rare Handcrafts Golden Ellipse White Gold Alligator Leather 34.5 x 39.5mm

This limited edition of ten watches in Grand Feu cloisonné enamel presents an owl, associated with witchcraft and black magic, depicted here after a work by a famous French painter of animals. To reproduce the contours of this nocturnal raptor, the enameller worked with about 80 cm of gold wire (~0.34 g). He then re-transcribed all the realism of the plumage and the nest, using a palette of 27 enamel colors, mainly transparent, but with some opaque or opalescent.
