Animal World Collection
In celebrating its 150th anniversary, Chopard is remaining loyal to its reputation for creativity by introducing a Haute Joaillerie collection on the theme of animals – a universe barely yet explored by the company. The result is a fabulous bestiary imbued with fanciful fairytale creatures. This anniversary edition comprises of 15 watches, featuring an original design and testifying to Chopard's legendary inventiveness and expertise, in the twin fields of fine jewellery and watch making.
The timepieces in the Haute Joaillerie Animal World Collection are creative gems humorously illustrating a variety of animals that are not often featured in the realm of Haute Joaillerie. Exotic species such as monkeys, polar bears and penguins are portrayed in vividly depicted scenes.
An irresistibly mischievous mango-stealing macaque monkey appears to be actually moving as he hangs from a creeper, preparing to pounce on other fruits – this scene cleverly represented by moving brilliants. The amazingly realistic and endearingly cheeky attitude of the primate caught red-handed had been patiently studied and then transcribed by a sculptor. The diamond-set rose gold bezel creates a stunning contrast amidst the luxurious greenery of the jungle adorning the iridescent mother-of-pearl dial. Meanwhile, the bronze-tinted strap adds the perfect final touch of sophistication and character.
After the warmth of the tropical forest, Chopard sweeps us off to the vast cool reaches of the ice floe, with a polar bear playing on its frozen dial. Three moving diamonds symbolise the crystalline sparkle of ice in the sunshine. The gold crown is paved with brilliants reminiscent of frost flakes. This elegant and luminous watch fitted with a light grey strap, is a perfect way of enlivening a cashmere sweater or freshening up a summer dress in a heat wave!
The same fanciful touch and the synonymous concern for realism pervades the timepiece featuring Antarctic penguins. Probably awaiting their turn to go hunting, each of the web-footed creatures adorning the mother-of-pearl dial is shown in a different stance, once again creating the impression of a live-action scene. A sprinkling of moving diamonds lends extra radiance to the spectacle, as do the diamonds adorning the bezel of this resolutely modern creation that is sure to appeal to devotees of graphic compositions.
