Simply Abu Dhabi Magazine XVI

Ivory accessories have a classic feel, much like a Jaquet Droz timepiece. To guarantee you always sign in your finest hand, the 18k red gold-plated and ivory resin model with retractable clip and tipmechanism is the ideal companion for life. The barrel end cap features an ivory enamel disc where two star appliqués in 18k red gold find an answering reflection in the pair of cufflinks. This final touch of finesse is the embodiment of true elegance. Continuing the Ateliers d'Art theme, the artisans drew inspiration from the Petite HeureMinute Relief Seasons to create a writing instrument that pays tribute to the work of the engraver and the sculptor. Engraved floral motifs complement the barrel end cap with its hand- engraved bird appliqué in 18k red gold. Limited to a series of 88, the pen is accompanied by a pair of cufflinks in red gold where the bird reappears in full, glorious flight. Finally, the Art of paillonné enamelling is given pride of place on a pair of cufflinks. Each one incorporates an enamel disc coloured with a superlative shade of blue. Deep, smooth and pure, it intensifies the effect of the 18k red gold paillons, which our artisans have positioned symmetrically by hand. These cufflinks elevate the more regally-inclined Jaquet Droz timepieces to even greater heights. Jaquet Droz has built an admirable reputation, one based on innovation as well as sophistication. It’s fitting, then, that these utterly spectacular sets are a master class in design, both technically and aesthetically. 2 7 9 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I
