It is undeniable that enamel is applied in many areas of life such as: Jewelry, worship items, feng shui items, interior products… But for watch dials, it is a pinnacle.

First of all, it is about technique and complexity. Unlike other popular products, Cloisonné threads are often crafted from very thin silver or gold to create super small details, high-quality mineral enamel instead of lead-based enamel on conventional decorative products. The enamel here is painted in many layers and fired many times at high temperatures, the craftsmanship of the artisan is a must. Besides, there is the artistic element, the minimalist but sophisticated layouts, harmonious colors and often symbolic motifs.
