De Grisogono’s new bracelet watch for women is inspired by the youngest daughter of Fawaz Gruosi, the founder and head of the eminent Swiss jewellery house.
Bearing the name of Gruosi’s youngest daughter Violetta, affectionately known as Vivi, the Lovivi watch embodies a play on words filled with tenderness and combining ‘Love’ and ‘Vivi’.
Available in five versions, the exceptional jewelry watch is said to evoke the strength and timelessness of the curves of the symbol of infinity, and is the “perfect representation of the unbreakable link between a father and his daughter”.
Featuring materials as original as fossilized mammoth ivory, black jet and amber, as well as a mineral considered to be the most sacred of all, turquoise: this original cuff watch has it all, the house says.
This wrist worn treasure hints at a unique, assertive personality, and at wholehearted, intense emotions, making it a vivid symbol of life and love, it adds.
The watch’s rectangular case with softened lines is in white or rose gold, and totally snow set with 299 diamonds or partially with 96 diamonds or emeralds.
The dials are made of mother-of-pearl of various hues and house white or rose gold dauphine hands.
The bracelet is carved from a single block of stone, a complex, painstaking task that endows the watch with its status as a one-of-a-kind work of art.
Once carved, the bracelet can be adjusted by means of a clasp. The watch is available in jet black lacquer with white gold set diamonds, turquoise with emeralds, amber with rose gold, ivory and mother of pearl and ivory and rose gold.
