A THOUSAND AND ONE Joséphine

Equal parts refined and ahead of her time, Joséphine set herself apart through her contemporary femininity. A woman of strong character, she asserted herself with elegance, sure in her choices and tastes. A woman of the court and empress of fashion, she revealed her multitude of facets in response to the frenetic pace at which she lived life. The art of the Empress’s style and personality never cease to inspire the Joséphine collection, which transforms the tiara into a ring and magnifies the pear cut of which she was particularly fond. Creations with the femininity of today, inspired by a resolutely modern woman of yesterday. 

Joséphine AIGRETTE the art of wearing a watch differently

Continuing the tradition of time-telling avantgarde jewels, the new Joséphine Aigrette-shaped watch challenges the codes of watchmaking and offers an original way of everyday wearing. This creation is precious and refined like a jewel, with its pavé or mirror-polished gold case, singular and feminine in its pear shape. The bracelet wraps the wrist in an unprecedented way, without hindrance or buckle.

In white or rose gold, pavé or not, in leather for the day, satin for the evening, and with a white or black dial or entirely in pavé diamonds, the Joséphine Aigrette jewellery watch is an expression of Chaumet virtuosity and detail. Reinterpreting the Maison’s historic art of trompel’oeil, the pear motif appears on the index set with a brilliant-cut diamond and adorns the dial with its graphic facets.
