This museum-quality, rare Empire clock in gilt and patinated bronze with Eros leaning on a large lyre while gazing in the distance is a model by bronze caster and gilder Claude Galle (1759-1815).

GILDED AGE

This rare Empire clock in gilt and patinated bronze with Eros leaning on a large lyre is by Claude Galle. The sculpted and carved sculpture of Eros and his lyre form the main focus of this museum-quality clock. All the details and quality of making reveal the hand of the renowned bronze caster and gilder: Eros stands on the base of the clock, with one foot on a stool and his clothes draped around his body. He plucks his lyre, which contains the clockwork movement, while gazing into the distance. The clock has a quadrangular plinth in gilt and patinated bronze mounted with garlands, swans, butterflies and torches and resting on four ball feet with butterfly wings. Next to Eros is the arrows which he shoots to make people fall in love, a fire that warms and ignites the heart, and by his left foot are a quiver and a torch, all typical symbols of the god. In the middle of the lyre is the clockwork, which has a white enamel annular dial, signed Bailly à Paris, a clockmaker on Rue Menars and Rue Richelieu in 1810, wrapped around an openwork rosette with palmettes and foliage. The movement with anchor escapement and silk thread suspension strikes the hour and half hours on a bell. The white enamel dial features Roman numerals and blued-steel Breguet-style hands indicate the hours and minutes. In exceptional and perfectly working conditions, this Empire clock comes with its original mercury gilding. The clock has been cleaned and serviced by a professional clock maker, and comes complete with its pendulum, key and bell. This model is also known entirely gilded or with variations in the arrangement of the patina. In his book “Les ouvriers du temps”, Jean-Dominique Augarde wrote about a version of this clock signed by Claude Galle. (Images courtesy of Apollo Art & Antiques)

FEMININITY, INSPIREDY BY THE BARONESS WITH A BRUSH www.armani.com Like the work of painter Tamara de Lempicka (1898-1980), whose depiction of women combined the voluptuous sensuality of Ingres with the optimistic style of Art Deco, late neoclassicism and refined cubism, Armani Privé Couture Fall/Winter 2022-2023 collection is themed “pétillant”, sparkling with multi-faceted femininity, inspired by the “baroness with a brush” herself.

The Armani Privé Couture Fall/Winter 2022-2023 show began with a sombre palette of black, grey and white, and as the 93 looks drifted down the runway, glimpses of optimism emerged, in the shades of pink, blue, violet, peeking through much like Tamara de Lempicka’s body of work and the Art Deco era that inspired this collection. Most pantsuits and 2-piece ensembles feature a structured shoulder which accentuates the dainty waistline, then sways and tapers off at the ankle. For daytime, sleek blazers and jackets are long and lapel-less, effortlessly paired with any of the flowing skirts and trousers for unique looks and individual styling, while for night time, evening gowns are strapless, weightless yet voluminous, like nocturnal flowers that awaken and blossom. Above all, themed “pétillant”, the collection is bathed in light. Every piece sparkled with diaphanous layers of silk jacquard, satin, velvet, paillette, beading and embroidery, like modern femininity which never ceases to surprise and delight.

For its timepieces, Harry Winston only uses diamonds with a clarity grade from Internally Flawless to Very, Very Slightly Included (unless otherwise specified), and colour from the top three grades (D, E, F).

ULTIMATE EMERALD SIGNATURE www.harrywinston.com Following the tradition of Mr. Winston’s pioneering spirit, Harry Winston developed its own alloys: Zalium and Winstonium. The former is a zirconium based alloy that is extremely corrosion-resistant and lighter than steel, while the latter is a special platinum, containing more rhodium, which allows for a shinier finish.

The blue colour associated with the Hope Diamond is used throughout Harry Winston creations and Salons worldwide. The Emerald shape, like emerald-cut diamonds, serves as the House’s logo, also comes to life in the Ultimate Emerald Signature timepiece collection with octagonal cases. The three arches adorning the case shapes of most collections are direct references to the entryway of New York Fifth Avenue Flagship Salon while the Cluster motif and technique are reinterpreted through watch designs. The Ultimate Emerald Signature is part of of Harry Winston’s High Jewellery Timepieces collection, and there has been a new version since 2021. Recently, the brand opened a 355-square-metre salon, which exudes the elegance and intimacy of a private estate. The House’s iconic soft taupe and grey color palette is used throughout the interior, complementing classic elements such as custom designed lacquer, bronze accents and antique bronze furniture with pristine marble floors and bespoke crystal chandeliers. Shoppers can browse in the dedicated galleries, or have a highly discreet and personalised experience in the private selling rooms. In December 2021, Harry Winston also opened its second retail salon in Beijing in a 461-square metre space at the China World Trade Center. “The opening of our new China World Trade Center salon marks the House’s second location in Beijing and our sixth in China,” said Nayla Hayek, CEO of Harry Winston, Inc. “Beijing, an epicentre for fashion and luxury, is an incredibly important market for the House. This salon will be our second largest in China, and through this opening, we are excited to have a larger presence in the city.”

COCO CHANEL www.chanel.com

The highlight of Chanel’s unprecedented high jewellery collection is an emblematic and exceptional necklace set with a 55.55-carat diamond, stated Patrice Leguéreau, Director of the Chanel Fine Jewellery Creation Studio.

To celebrate the 100th year of the N°5 perfume’s fame, Patrice Leguéreau, Director of the Chanel Fine Jewellery Creation Studio, has imagined the “Collection N°5”, the first High Jewelry collection ever to be dedicated to a perfume. From the bottle to the sillage, these 123 extraordinary pieces express the different facets of the N°5 perfume. In 1921, the first “perfume for women with the scent of a woman” composed by Ernest Beaux and Gabrielle Chanel made a sound of commotion. The modernity of the fragrance, the purity of the bottle and the mystery of the name, the N°5 perfume was nothing short of a revolution. In 1932, Mademoiselle shattered the codes of French High Jewelry with her one and only collection in platinum and diamonds. These “Bijoux de Diamants” introduced new ways of wearing jewelry and took jewelry into a new realm... that of allure. In 2021, Leguéreau decided to bring these two domains together with the Collection N°5. “Gabrielle Chanel approached these two universes with the same visionary values, focusing on audacity and the quest for excellence. I wanted to rediscover that creative gesture with this collection, which has been conceived like a journey through the meanderings of the N°5 perfume’s soul, from the architecture of the bottle to the olfactive explosion of the fragrance. The highlight of this unprecedented collection is an emblematic and exceptional necklace set with a 55.55-carat diamond.” The Creation Studio magnifies five of the N°5 perfume’s identifying elements through compositions of rare and exceptional gemstones. With 100 years of fame behind it, only a rich, unique and mysterious perfume like the N°5 perfume could inspire such a majestic collection of High Jewellery.

LA MAGIA DI UN REGALO DA CONDIVIDERE BEVI ZACAPA RESPONSABILMENTE.

“Nothing could be better for forgetting the crisis than feasting one’s eyes on beautiful new things, which the skills of our craftsmen and women never cease to unveil.” - Gabrielle Chanel, who created “Bijoux de Diamants” 90 years ago, the world’s first high jewellery collection, applying a fundamental principle: giving women’s bodies freedom and adorning them at the same time.

Gabriel Chanel once said, “My jewellery never stands in isolation from the idea of women and their dresses. It is because dresses change that my jewellery is transformable.” Ninety years after she created her first high jewellery collection, “Bijoux de Diamants”, the Chanel Fine Jewellery Creation Studio has been inspired to pen a new story. Director Patrice Leguéreau expressed, “I wanted to return to the essence of 1932 and to harmonise the message around three symbols: the comet, the moon, and the sun. Each heavenly body shines with its own light.” Out of 77 spectacular creations, 13 are transformable. Star-studded coils can be twisted around the wrist to create individual styling. By wearing the pieces in her unique way, every woman paints her own tableau: sapphires as blue as the night, diamonds of intense blue or as yellow as the blazing sun, opals as deep and intricate as a galaxy, rubies of a vibrant red, spinels glowing like dawn, tanzanites with the colour of the skies. Thus, the “1932” collection also gives pride and place to colourful gemstones. The “Allure Céleste” necklace, the collection’s signature piece, spotlights an oval sapphire of a deep and intense blue and an exceptional weight of 55.55 carats, a Type IIa DFL 8.05 carat pear-shaped diamond shine with an extraordinary brilliance, and round-cut diamonds. The halos on this transformable piece detach to become brooches, while the central row of diamonds becomes a bracelet, transforming the necklace into a short version.

THE ETERNAL TWINS www.graff.com

The Eternal Twins, two completely identical 50.23-carat gems cut from a 269-carat rough discovered in Botswana’s Karowe mine, have been set in a pair of earrings incorporating a total of 132.53 carats of exceptional diamonds. Graff’s master craftsmen and design team have combined true artistry with luminosity of astronomical proportions in the creation of these beautiful jewels. The first jeweller to receive the Queen’s Award to Industry and Export in 1973, Graff is synonymous with the ‘all-diamond’ jewel, involved with every stage of a diamond’s life, from mining and cutting to designing and manufacturing..

THE 12TH SAUT HERMÈS

www.sauthermes.com

Fifty-five of the world’s best riders took part in the 12th edition of Saut Hermès at the Grand Palais Éphémère, the CSI 5*-certified show jumping competition.

During the high point of the Saut Hermès in March 2022, the €25,500 Prix Hermès Sellier CSI 5*, the accumulator competition with jumps measuring 1m50, there were 22 clear rounds out of the 53 competing horse and rider pairings. Swiss rider Martin Fuchs (SUI) took the win as the only competitor to go clear in a sub-57-second time (56’’94). The recent European team champion and world No. 3 partnered with The Sinner, a 14-year-old gelding. “It was a bit of a tricky course with some very tight bends. When walking the course, I didn’t think there would be so many riders taking all the options. However, wearing No. 28, I was able to see the rounds posted by several riders before me and I knew that I’d have to take the bends as tight as possible to win it! My horse Sinner was fabulous today. I’m delighted to take the win here at the Saut Hermès. I love this competition!”

Founded in 1991 and with more than 30 years of experience in both the world of sport and breeding of dressage horses, Blue Hors contributes to the improvement of the global breeding of dressage horses with top-quality bloodlines from the best stallion and damlines in the game. The development of the worldwide breeding of sports horses is one of its most important tasks, serving to 2,000 mares both at home in Denmark and abroad in all parts of the world every season. Blue Hors is one of the world’s leading stallion stations today.

Blue Hors is home to several of the most sought-after dressage stallions such as the legendary Olympians and sires, Blue Hors Don Schufro and Blue Hors Zack, as well as many younger stallions who also carries themselves with the promise of a bright future ahead of them.Amongst those, there are several promising sons by Blue Hors Zack, all of whom are already making big names for themselves, both as Grand Prix horses, but certainly also as sires to highly decorated offspring. This foundation serve as a basis for stallions, riders, mares and their offspring to shows, tests and competitions all over the world.

TRADITION

Blue Hors horses, riders and offspring have won medals at national championships, European championships, World Cups and Olympic Games. Stallions from Blue Hors have made their mark in big finals and shows, and several offspring sired by Blue Hors stallions are to be found in the top of the FEI dressage rankings. Blue Hors is a training and competition stable which plays a major role in international dressage sport by taking part in top competitions and selling many talented dressage horses to riders worldwide. With the experienced team and high-quality offspring, Blue Hors offers sales horses educated, administrated and developed by the Blue Hors riders, grooms, giving buyers access to all relevant information around the horse’s wellbeing. When the breeders want to sell their offspring by Blue Hors stallions, a professional advertisement can be created in the database and on the website. Here, their offspring will be shown to potential buyers looking for their next top horse. In 2014 Blue Hors inaugurated a brand new and state-of-the-art dressage centre. Blue Hors has a training scale where no horse is pressured to perform above what they are ready for. Instead, goals are established for each horse giving them time to grow into their abilities. The focus is on quality rather than quantity, and the long-term goal is to prove that a horse in harmony and a careful management form the best basis for a horse’s well-being and better results in the sport.

ROYAL WINDSOR HORSE SHOW

The Rolex Grand Prix provided a fitting finale to the 4-day Show in 2022, with the finest horse and riders in action to compete for the prestigious prize, which went to Gregory Wathelet.

www.rwhs.co.uk

Since its first edition in 1943, Royal Windsor Horse Show has continued to run every year since World War II and is now the only show in the U.K. to host international competitions in Show Jumping, Dressage, Driving and Endurance. The feature CSI5* class of the 2022 finale, the Rolex Grand Prix, saw the first to go in the jump-off, Belgian Gregory Wathelet, laid down the gauntlet with the tightest of turns to the Rolex double at the far end of the arena and flying down to the final fence to set the time to beat of 34.79 seconds aboard Nevados S. Wathelet said, “It is amazing to win a Grand Prix, especially a Rolex Grand Prix. I jumped in the Nations Cup at La Baule last week and the horse was jumping really well, so I was confident coming to Royal Windsor that he was on great form. It was a tough course which was very up to height, but I thought there would be more clears from the top combinations. Even though there weren’t many riders in the jumpoff you still have to go fast and clear to win. The Show is incredible, the atmosphere and the crowds are amazing, all of the riders love coming here.”

Calibre 3255 is a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex, with patents such as the Paraflex shock absorbers and Chronergy escapement that provide stability and anti-magnetism. What’s more is that the blue Parachrom hairspring, manufactured by Rolex in a paramagnetic alloy. Insensitive to magnetic fields, the Parachrom hairspring offers great stability in the face of temperature variations and remains up to 10 times more precise than a traditional hairspring in case of shocks. Calibre 3255 is fitted with a self-winding module featuring a Perpetual rotor. Thanks to its barrel architecture and the escapement’s superior efficiency, the power reserve of this movement extends to approximately 70 hours.

The Day-Date’s calendar displays the day of the week spelt out in full in an arc-shaped window at 12 o’clock in addition to the date in a separate window at 3 o’clock. This display relies on disc mechanisms; the day and date change simultaneously and instantaneously. The indication of the day of the week is available in a choice of 26 languages. The Day-Date is also equipped with a mechanism allowing rapid adjustment of the day and the date using the winding crown. Like all Rolex watches, the Day-Date is covered by the Superlative Chronometer certification redefined by Rolex in 2015. This exclusive designation testifies that every watch leaving the brand’s workshops has successfully undergone a series of tests conducted by Rolex in its own laboratories and according to its own criteria. These certification tests apply to the fully assembled watch, after casing the movement,

guaranteeing superlative performance on the wrist in terms of precision, power reserve, waterproofness and self-winding. The Superlative Chronometer status is symbolised by the green seal that comes with every Rolex watch and is coupled with an international 5-year guarantee. The precision of every movement – officially certified as a chronometer by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) – is tested a second time by Rolex after being cased for a precision within −2/+2 seconds per day, much stricter than that accepted by COSC for official certification of the movement alone. Rolex checks the waterproofness, the self-winding capacity and the power reserve of 100 per cent of Rolex watches. These tests systematically complement the qualification testing during development and production, in order to ensure the watches’ reliability, robustness, and resistance to magnetism and shocks.

The sale of more than 1,500 fine and decorative art objects from the entire Getty collection realised over $150 million, all of which will benefit the couple’s charity, The Ann & Gordon Getty Foundation for the Arts. This success ranks The Ann & Gordon Getty Collection among the top three collections of both fine and decorative arts to sell at Christie’s, alongside The Collection of Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé and The Collection of Peggy and David Rockefeller. Jonathan Rendell, Christie’s Deputy Chairman, said, “It is especially gratifying to see the strength in interest across the board from Chinese Works of Art, to English and Continental Furniture, to textiles, table decorations and handbags. The Getty sales are proof that the market continues to value great connoisseurship and that quality is timeless.” Kicking off the whirlwind series was the evening sale of Volume 1: Important Pictures and Decorative Arts on Thursday 20 October, which sold 100% of the lots at 128% above the low estimate. The live auction drew nearly 2 million viewers online and achieved a final total of $79,408,900. Volume 2: Old Master, 19th and 20th Century Paintings took place the next day, Friday 21 October. The sale totalled $33,871,230, 145% above the low estimate.

Etihad Airways has announced its new Airbus A350 aircraft, part of the airline’s sustainability drive, is available to book on the London HeathrowAbu Dhabi route starting November 2022 flights.

ETIHAD’S NEW A350 Formed as a partnership between Etihad, Airbus and Rolls-Royce in 2021, the Sustainability50 programme will see Etihad’s A350s used as flying testbeds of new initiatives, procedures and technologies to reduce carbon emissions, building on the learnings derived from Etihad’s similar Greenliner programme for the Boeing B787 aircraft type. The RollsRoyce Trent XWB-powered Airbus A350 is one of the most efficient aircraft types in the world, with 25 percent less fuel burn and carbon dioxide emissions than previous-generation twin-aisle aircraft. Etihad recently established a formal framework with Airbus to collaborate on sustainability across a number of areas including the promotion and commercialisation of sustainable aviation fuel, waste and weight management, as well as the development of data-driven analysis.

3 1

The elevated Business Class on Etihad’s A350s is home to 44 Business Studios with sliding doors that provide each suite with a high level of privacy. Every seat faces forward with direct aisle access. The Business Class seat, with a width of over 20”, converts into a fully-flat bed of 79” in length and features ample storage for convenience. Also in Business Class, noise-cancelling headphones and an 18.5” TV screen provide a cinematic experience to enjoy Etihad’s extensive inflight entertainment offering. Business Class guests can choose from a carefully curated à la carte menu, and guests on longer flights can enjoy Etihad’s signature ‘dine anytime’ service. Jeremy Pollock, Country Manager, UK & Ireland, Etihad Airways, says: We are very excited to introduce the Airbus A350 to our UK guests. With highly efficient fuel consumption and carbon dioxide savings, our passengers will have an enhanced travel experience knowing they are making a positive travel choice. We are looking forward to showing off our new cabins, award-winning seats and customer service, and to welcoming our first guests onboard in November.” Etihad Airways had also increased its four daily flights from London Heathrow to five daily flights, with one flight a day continuing from Manchester and five flights a week from Dublin.
