Backes & Strauss at WPHH 2014
The oldest jewelry house Backes & Strauss is celebrating two anniversaries: the 225th anniversary of its founding and the 200th anniversary of the staying in London, whose architecture has always inspired artists to create a unique design and style of luxury watches.
This year the company Backes & Strauss will present at the WPHH 2014 amazing new items Piccadilly Princess Royal Colours, Royal Jester, Piccadilly John Bull and range of pocket watches Regent Beau Brummell.
In decorating the watches are used the purest diamonds.
Of particular note is a new model Royal Jester. Let’s glance at the history and recall the favorite character - the royal jester, who appease the king and give him smart advice.
Masters of the jewelry house Backes & Strauss decided to embody in the design of the new model Royal Jester its own vision. Baguette cut diamonds are lined in circles on the dial, and at its center is set a large sparkling shimmering diamond weighing 1.01 carats – the jester himself. The outer side of the case is also decorated with 80 diamonds. Another 40 diamonds are viewed through the hour and minute marks, made in a restrained crimson color and attached to the crystal disks. Thus, the impression is of floating in the air, unrelated stones.
The Royal Jester watch operates on the base of mechanical caliber, providing a 36 - hour power reserve.
