Description

\xa0The jewelry watch collection, entitled "Mademoiselle Priv", opens the door to the intimate world of Gabrielle Chanel, and showcases her most cherished symbols and objects she loved to have around her.\t\xa0Inspired by the lacquer Coromandel screens of Gabrielle Chanel\s appartment, this case containing two jewellery watches of the Mademoiselle Priv Coromandel collection faithfully adopts some of their sumptuous decorations. Reproduced in miniature, the dials of the two Coromandel Twin watches symbolise yin and yang, man and woman, light and shadow and the black and white that so faithfully represent CHANEL. As opposites are often complementary, this duality interprets the same aesthetic using two exceptional techniques, Grand Feu enamel and sculpted mother-of-pearl.\xa0 The gold cases and crowns are adorned with snow-set diamonds and delicately showcase the unique design of each dial.\t\xa0
