Rivières
RIVIÈRES DE CARTIER
Insouciance
Free and sweet, this gentle river sparkles in the reflection of the sun's rays. Bouncing off blooming flowers, irises and violets, it glistens in the cool shade of fruit trees.
Allégresse
Beautiful and joyful, the river quivers with delight as a tuberose passes by. Leaf after leaf, petitgrain and bergamot, the river flourishes vivaciously, bathing in the fresh notes of blackcurrant bud.
THE ART OF FIRE
At La Chaux-de-Fonds, the master enameller becomes an expert in traditional techniques such as cloisonné, champlevé, plique-à-jour and grisaille enamel, as well as techniques that the Maison des Métiers d’Art has developed or revived, for example gold paste enamelling, filigree enamelling or enamel granulation, which differs from other enamelling techniques due to the fact that the enamel beads, or balls, are created using a blowtorch, not in a kiln. It takes almost 30 hours to create an enamelled dial and the piece needs to be fired in the kiln around 10 to 15 times to obtain the different shades.
Luxuriance
Generous and complex, this river is brimming with nature, fern, lentiscus, oak, rosemary and wild herbs. A source of natural and wild freshness whose primitive energy is magnified by the geranium.
