D Genève collaborated with the company Mondin for the launch of its first variety of Nisiar. This alliance materialises in the creation of a limited edition of their Circular 1 Grenat model of 40 pieces.
“Nisiar was born out of our desire to rethink how we use natural resources. Today, we are thrilled to present a material that combines aesthetics, performance, and eco-responsibility,” explains Rodolphe Mondin, co-founder of Nisiar.
This material stands out for its lack of textile support, giving it resistance and durability equivalent to animal leather, with a composition of 75% natural materials. Making one square meter of Nisiar requires about 1kg of raw grape marc.
Each variety of Nisiar is associated with a specific grape marc, giving it a unique colour and texture. The N-07 variety ID Genève uses comes from the wine residue of Château de Beaucastel, owned by the Perrin Family, partners, and investors in Mondin. Its uniqueness lies in its natural brown hue derived from the tannins of 13 grape varieties of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation.
“With Nisiar, we have not only found a material of exceptional quality but also an extremely precise traceability that allows us to trace the exact journey of the grape marc from Château de Beaucastel to the watch strap. This transparency is the luxury of tomorrow” indicates Cédric Mulhauser, co-founder of ID Genève.
