Behind the Scenes

The delicate snow-setting on the dial and bezel is framed by a double row of gently moving briolette-cut gemstones.
Composing a swirling pattern surrounding the watchcase, the briolettes are selected one-by-one, set and fitted to perfectly make the grapes moves smoothly jiggling on the wrist.

Made of 120 hours of work into creating each unique timepiece, the creation process starts with the careful selection of each stone and especially to find the right colours and sizes of the briolettes.
An artwork that requires not only patience but also a keen eye to find the most harmonious composition and balance between the stones. Then comes the intricate setting that is similar to lacework.

The 70 moving briolettes composing the amazing corolla are delicately sewed on the case modules. With refined elegance, they dangle and move while reflecting light from any of their facets.
Patience and time are necessary to mount and dismount the artwork several times to achieve absolute perfection and colour uniformity.

At the end results an impressive setting of stones that radiate outwards in a perfectly proportioned spiral. The Grappoli creation process asserts de Grisogono high jewellery mastery and Haute Couture spirit.
