About the Classical Garden Bird

Oh what joy a Hummingbird brings! A mere wisp of a bird, it can surprise and delight as it spontaneously takes flight forwards, backwards and even sideways. Feasting on the nectar of beautiful flowers this amazing creature never fails to in turn feeds the human spirit. CORUM's Classical Garden Bird celebrates the Hummingbird and the sumptuous garden of flowers that provides its nourishment.
A Limited Edition work of art, the Classical Garden Bird imparts luxury to any collector's jewellery box. This hand-painted miniature on mother-of-pearl is elegantly framed in a 40 mm 18kt gold case. Limited to 50 pieces, each with a one-of-a-kind color palette.
CORUM'S HIGH ART: HAND-PAINTED MINIATURES
The art of painting miniatures on a watch dial is similar to the technique used in painting on canvas. The artisan works with indelible paints (lacquers) on which he can work over and over again. The colours are applied and mixed on the dial itself, using extremely fine brushes under a microscope. The dial is fired in a 90-degree oven between each application, allowing the colours to dry and thereby achieve intense depth and details. Repeated firings are required to protect each phase of the process. The production time for each dial varies according to the complexity of the motif. It is approximately 29 hours to create the "Classical Garden Bird" model.
