Louis Vuitton wants you to enjoy some timely spring flowers.
The French maison has taken the Color Blossom jewelry collection into new territory, adding a timepiece inspired by the LV Monogram Flower. It is the first watch in the house’s fine-jewelry lines, underscoring its expansion from high fashion into high horology that began with the 2011 acquisition of La Fabrique du Temps watch manufacture.
“We wished to reinterpret an iconic jewelry collection, presenting a women’s timepiece with a jewelry spirit,” said Matthieu Hegi, artistic director at La Fabrique du Temps.
The timepiece showcases LV’s dual expertise in watch and jewelry making, combining diamonds and gemstones with a reliable quartz movement. At the center of the 26 mm pebble-shaped case lies the famous rounded quatrefoil motif. Georges Vuitton created the floral monogram in 1896, taking inspiration from the 19th-century Art Nouveau and Gothic movements and traditional Japanese family crests (or mon). The curved sapphire glass is also cut into the shape of the four-petaled flower, providing a clear view of the hardstone dial below. Rounding out the design is a flower-shaped crown and leather strap.
