Jacques Dro Discover The Magic Of Gems

17. July 2017

Since ancient times, people have been fascinated by the magic and implication of gems. Since the beginning of the brand, Jaquet Droz has continuously selected exotic treasures from the depths of the earth and outer space to create unique dials. The brand’s gem experts never stop searching for rare gems, because they will surely become legendary and unique temperamental orphanages, and reflect the personality and preferences of the owner in some way. Often, the creation of a small dial requires the use of an entire gemstone, sometimes not even shaped. Therefore, the selected crystal must be sufficiently hard and scratch-resistant to withstand frequent processing without being damaged. Even master craftsmen need to devote all their extraordinary skills and outstanding appreciation of beauty in order to finally show the strange charm of those gems. One of the most difficult challenges is to find the natural growth direction of each gem, and cut and process it while maintaining their finest and most natural texture.
     Master sculptors and dial makers work on a variety of gems: lapis lazuli, emerald, bronze pyroxene, red moss agate, and more. They researched different cutting methods for each gem, looking for their inner soul and essence, so that they could be processed while maintaining their integrity. Of course, as a reflection of rare respect, these dials were eventually used only for making limited edition models, 88, 8 or even just one.
