New record ! 470 pieces of 29 different materials assembled in less than 3 cm in diameter to create the dial of this FOREST WATCH. Beyond the purely technical aspect, the exercise here focused on showcasing the poetry of this incredible creation by the marquetry artist Rose Saneuil, here freed from all constraints for this entirely personal work.
