This spectacular Boucheron creation is a unique piece donated to support the work of ELA. A naturalistic interpretation of time flying by, this exceptional Volute watch combines all of Boucheron’s jewellery expertise with watchmaking precision. The white gold volutes set with diamonds spread out around a snow-set dial. A halo of diamonds encircles the openwork case, from which the volutes seem to spring. This open architecture reveals the great complexity of the pattern.
Crafted from almost 43 grams of 18-carat white gold, it is alight with the fire of an incredible 395 white diamonds weighing almost 2.6 carats in total.
This modern masterpiece by the fabled French jewellery house of Boucheron epitomises the elegance and exceptional craftsmanship for which the company is renowned, whilst making an important contribution to the medical research supported by ELA.
Frédéric Boucheron opened his first jewellery salon at the Palais Royal in 1858 and soon acquired fame as an expert in precious stones, a masterful technician and a creator of beautiful jewellery. In 1893, he was the first jeweller to set up shop at the Place Vendôme, where he continued to serve the social elite and from where the firm still operates successfully today. Over the years, Maison Boucheron opened branches in Moscow and London, as well as in Japan, the Middle East and the Far East. Boucheron exhibited at many international expositions, including the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial, the 1889 and 1900 Expositions Universelles in Paris, the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago and the 1925 Exposition des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Boucheron was acquired in May 2000 by the Kering Group (then known as PPR), one of the world’s leading multi-brand luxury goods companies.
