KHAMAMA CELESTE 1773 Timepiece

Unisex dress/jewellery watch

The KHAMAMA CELESTE 1773 timepiece, captures the brightly sparkling cyan of sun-bleached desert skies. Like Fata Morganas, showers of yellowish, greenish and bluish iridescence cover the dial from certain perspectives, creating a celestial shine.

Using the most exclusive and beautiful butterfly wings, each handcrafted KHAMAMA CELESTE 1773 is classic and unique. As such, slight design variations are to be expected.

Kaleidoscopic V

The organically black spotted V, which dominates the dial, emerges kaleidoscopically from the vertical center line. Although the center line at first seems to mirror the dial in half, a closer look reveals the organic uniqueness of each of the dial parts.

 

Haute Art de Papillon

The KHAMAMA CELESTE 1773 Timepiece is created with a precious art of butterfly wing marquetry called Haute Art de Papillon. The marquetry of this luxury watch uses celestial shining butterfly wings, both sustainably and ethically sourced from KHAMAMA butterfly farms in Madagascar.

 

The Year 1773

Each KHAMAMA CELESTE 1773 Watch bears the year 1773 in its name. In 1773 the butterfly species of KHAMAMA CELESTE 1773 was discovered in Africa and then scientifically described by Dru Drury in England. Dru Drury was a London based silversmith creating delicate jewellery his whole life until he decided to focus on natural creations which are more beautiful than precious metals and gemstones - butterflies. He became a full-time researcher and the president of the Society of Entomologists of London.
