sumptuous “metières d’art” pocket watch

This pocket watch therefore reinterprets on its cover and its dial (with the characteristic numerals specific to this collection) the motif of the Masan & Masan square, signed by the Thai designer Terawat Teankaprasith.

The ancestral art of horsehair braiding – masan meaning “braided horse” in Thai – involves collecting the proliferating water hyacinth, drying it in the sun, then weaving it by hand to create objects such as baskets, hats , sandals or animal figurines.

Inspired by this oriental basketry technique, the Slim d’Hermès Masan Masan combines engraving and horsehair marquetry, in an interpretation of the equestrian world dear to Hermès.
