Jaeger-LeCoultre

That is a totally different thing, Rob.

 

But I loved the way you described the Klimt.

Could you imagine that one day, a brand will do straw marquetry?

I didn't even imagine it was possible, and I don't know if it was done, in the past.

I see it as an original, brilliant and crazy attempt.

The good thing, with the Atmos, is that everybody can find HIS.

Best,

Nicolas.

I can't resist to the pleasure to share with you another great Atmos, the Marqueterie ( Marquetry ). It is made of genuine straw, which is a true eye and light catcher. It will be made in an edition of 28 pieces only. Here is the press file, with some off...  

I'm more and more admirative in front of the ...

Unbelievable richness of the Atmos. It would be easier to make a list of the Atmos I don't like, rather than trying to gather all the pieces I love... Best, Nicolas

What a stunning piece, Nicolas!

Very modern design – I like it a lot! Thank you for sharing, my friend! Best Blomman

I highly recommend you to have an eye on it, Blomman.

It will haunt your dreams. Unaffordable, but hey, it is great to know that some pieces are destined to be at our home or on our wrist, and others are called to feed our dreams. Best, Nicolas.

Do I dare..?

Mmm....

Very nice but nowhere near the wooden wizardry of the Klimt version.

That is a totally different thing, Rob.

love the technology of the atmos! and this one is very cool

A pity I didn't have the time to take live pics of it...

But in the real, even better. Thanks for your input, my friend. Best, Nicolas.

Thanks for the news Nicolas.

I hope to have the good fortune to see one at some stage in the future. Regards, Richard.

Amazing coolness .. Curtain of Mystery..

Wow.. - The timepiece only reveals itself once you have steered yourself away from the tantalizing effects of the black veil, I guess - and then you mention the influence of light.. I've seen several 18th century furniture pieces with the technique, but t... 

Exactly that, hs...

First your eyes are attracted by Cabinet, then, in a second but not less intense time, by the clock. If I go to the Manufacture, and if they have them all at this moment, I will try to take pics of my favourite Atmos. From the Modern to the Vintage, there...

I have admired, but this one I really lust for! Fantastic. Exuberant minimalism. Thanks Andreas

Well put, Andreas.

My favourite among the Cabinet versions. Marqueted straw... Now that is a crazy idea! Best, Nicolas;
