Louis Vuitton Horlogerie presents L’AME DU VOYAGE – ESCALE A PARIS
The Haute Joaillerie collection “L’Ame du Voyage, Escale à Paris” designed by Lorenz Baümer is imagined as a stroll along the famous perspective which, from the Arc de Triomphe to the Tuileries Gardens, would have led the young Louis Vuitton from discovery to wonderment, all the way to Place Vendôme, a few steps from the Rue Neuve des Capucines where he opened his first store in 1854.
New creations now enrich the collection: two watches and a pair of earrings.
Jardin watch and earrings
The purity of the diamonds and the brilliance of the emeralds set in chrysoprase sketch the rigorous geometry of French garden alleys, as seen in the Tuileries. The dial of the Jardin watch is in mother-of-pearl marquetry.
Watch Paris-Vendôme
A masterful architecture of diamond lines, tracing the layout of Paris: the Place de L’Etoile, the Place de la Concorde and of course the Place Vendôme, where the first store exclusively dedicated to Louis Vuitton’s jewelry and watch collections is located.
LES ARDENTES
Les Ardentes is a timeless collection in white gold and diamonds inspired by Louis Vuitton’s iconic Monogram flowers, expressed through the setting of diamonds and the two diamonds Flower Cut and Star Cut. Hand-cut, they follow the sinuous contours of the rounded flower, or the sharp profile of the pointed flower.
This inspiration has given rise to a watch collection comprising several models with exceptional, technical settings. A secret watch with a mother-of-pearl dial, offered on a satin strap or a diamond-set bracelet. And a watch with a refined grand feu enamel dial, available in four different colors: red, blue, pink and green, and in two dial sizes of 25mm and 30mm.
Handcrafted by a master enameller, the dial is in grand feu enamel. A traditional technique, mastered by very few craftsmen in Geneva, it enhances the outer beauty of the timepiece. The dial is composed of a discreetly engine-turned white gold plate, covered by a deep-colored grand feu enamel that is translucent enough to suggest the engine-turned motif.
