Bird of light and enlightenment, inhabiting numerous legends, a white swan graces the Rare Handcrafts wood-marquetry dial of this limited edition of ten watches in rose gold.
To create this portrait, notable for the bird’s expressive glance, the marquetry maker cut out and assembled 93 veneer parts and 30 tiny inlays, together spanning 18 species of wood. Delicate shading, obtained by lightly scorching the wood, accentuates the impression of volume and relief in the plumage. An inlay in wood adorned with gold leaf forms the background.
This Patek Philippee watch houses a caliber 240 ultra-thin self-winding movement, which may be admired through a sapphire crystal case back.
