FABERGÉ LAUNCHES COMPLIQUÉE PEACOCK ARTE HAND-ETCHED WHITE GOLD LIMITED-EDITION WATCHES
This summer, Fabergé introduces a new variation of the Compliquée Peacock Watch. Made in partnership with Workmaster Jean-Marc Wiederrecht of Agenhor and Master Craftsman André Martinez. Limited to ten numbered pieces of each design, each watch dial is totally unique and features an abstract design by André Martinez, inspired by beautiful peacock feathers. These masterpieces are wearable art for the wrist.
The dials are engraved by a technique known as ‘eau forte’, or ‘etching’, an ‘intaglio’ print- making process dating back to the 16th century, in which an image or design is incised onto a plate using acid. Traditionally, this would be a metal plate; however, Martinez has expertly applied this technique to mother-of-pearl to create a unique appearance.
The Fabergé Compliquée Peacock Arte Hand-Etched Limited-Edition White Gold Watches ($52,500/£47,760) are available to purchase at selected Fabergé boutiques and on Faberge.com.
