Louis Erard has spent recent years defining a very specific place for itself within contemporary Swiss watchmaking. Its strength lies in clarity of design and advanced mechanics. That balance has become central to Louis Erard’s identity.
That design awareness is especially visible in the brand’s collaborative work, where Louis Erard has shown a rare ability to absorb the language of an outside creative without losing its own. One of its most notable collaborations is with French designer Alain Silberstein, who has, over the years, developed a visual vocabulary that is instantly recognisable, one in which hands, markers, and displays become a composition of shapes as much as instruments of timekeeping.
Blue Lapis Lazuli, also known as Lazurite, is a precious gemstone occasionally used in watchmaking to enhance the watch’s aesthetics. This stone is renowned for its deep blue hue, often interspersed with irregular lines or golden and white specks, giving it a distinctive and captivating appearance.
In watchmaking, blue Lapis Lazuli is primarily used as a decorative element, often featured in the dial or crown. Its rich color lends an air of luxury and sophistication, making it a popular choice for high-end and prestigious timepieces as a symbol of exclusivity and exceptional craftsmanship.
Lapis Lazuli stones are meticulously cut and polished to achieve a smooth surface suitable for integration into watch components. Due to its natural variations, each piece of blue Lapis Lazuli is entirely unique.
