  Chanel Lesage

  This camellia embroidered jewellery watch features a dial finely hand-embroidered with silk threads by the Chanel-owned Lesage embroidery atelier. Showcasing Chanel's iconic camellia motif accented with diamonds, it faithfully revives the house's most influential embroidery techniques, effectively transferring couture elements directly onto the dial.

  Upon closer inspection of the dial, every fine thread of the embroidery—from the petals to the stamens, the colour gradients, and the blooming contours—is articulated using two different shades of thread. This new Mademoiselle Privé jewellery watch collection from Chanel lifts the veil on Mademoiselle Chanel's private world, highlighting her cherished signature symbols and indispensable life elements.

  For instance, on a floral-themed dial, the artisan uses embroidery to evoke the aesthetic mood of a traditional Chinese bird-and-flower painting, which calls for a verse: 'No need for butterflies to linger amongst pristine blossoms, without a trace of fragrance, longing turns to endless yearning,' evoking a particularly poignant sentiment. This is embroidered onto the dial of 40mm. Even if one wished to fully recreate this 'butterflies in love with flowers' composition, it would be impossible to achieve the fine detail of the stamens and butterfly forelegs through standard means, as a butterfly's legs are exceptionally delicate.

  The embroiderer meticulously crafts the flowers and butterflies using single-sided embroidery, requiring thousands of stitches for every petal to achieve the realistic look of a fully opened peony. A butterfly with outstretched wings rests upon the petals, its slender middle and hind legs touching the surface, perfectly capturing the stillness of the insect alongside the natural growth of the petals. Through a single needle, Chinese embroidery achieves remarkable realism.
