Miniature painting

Dear Gordon,
Unfortunately the center dial wasn’t enamel painted as the Tellurium LE in platinum. Is it acrylic miniature painting on mother of pearl created in 2008-2009, it take about 20h for producing one dial and 2 artists were on the way for producing it in time. We were lucky because 2009 was the crisis time and many artistic workshop were in difficulties. We decided with Rolf to integrated into the walls of UN a small workshop of independent acrylic painters. Since this date the 2 ladies still continues producing small exclusive series for Ulysse Nardin as Classico Manara for example. It wasn’t possible to do it in real enamel because it takes about 40h and we didn’t find artist for producing it. All dials are unique and completely hand made of course.

Of course the Tellurium LE in platinum existed in two forms, a cloisonné version originally and then the enamel painted version.
2 enamel version

Yes the first one was the « cloisonné » made by Donzé and the miniature enamel painted for the LE in platinum made by Anita Porchet or Jean-Luc Peter. 2 greatest artists of watch dial
Interesting.

Who does the work now since the Tellurium is still available from UN as a special order?
Ask Ulysse Nardin

You must ask Ulysse Nardin but Cloisonné by Donzé for sure. Regards.
