Artisanship, Awakened.

Son Mài - Frosted Leaf

In a rare fusion of tradition and contemporary creation, our exceptional artisans have lent their hands and vision to an extraordinary endeavor: to elevate the beauty of our planet through deep, luminous, and textured hand-crafted dials, produced in a strictly limited series.

A dialogue between Art and Nature, Heritage and the Future.

Several months of work—and an exceptional level of dexterity and focus—were required of the master lacquerers to invent new ways of combining Sơn lacquer, silver leaf, and natural pigments, and to perfect a new exclusive technique, even more intricate and demanding.

This enabled the creation of organic, deep, and mysterious dials, frosted reflections, immediately evocative of Nature, which embodies the world’s essence and has always been an essential source of inspiration for our master lacquerers.

A Complex and Glazing Technique.

Master lacquerers first apply black pigments, followed by a layer of pure silver leaf, hand-sanded to reveal the initial textures. Next comes a veil of dark pigments, before the key step in our exclusive technique: Frosted Leaf.

Unlike traditional dials, a second layer of silver is added here, then covered with lighter pigments. This mille-feuille of materials is then finger-sanded by the most experienced craftsman, who reveals, with delicate gestures, the buried layers, creating effects of depth and light that are unique to each piece.

Incomparable Natural Colours.

The unique colors of our dials come exclusively from carefully selected natural pigments, sourced for their exceptional depth, vibrancy, and authenticity. Each pigment is meticulously blended by hand into refined Vietnamese lacquer, creating hues of unparalleled intensity and subtlety.

Through this precise and delicate process, colors gain remarkable luminosity and complexity, evolving with every additional layer applied. The result is a dial whose shades are not merely observed but experienced—rich, alive, and truly one-of-a-kind.
