Catch a glimpse of the unique craftsmanship and technical prowess behind the new Lady Arpels Ballerines Musicales watches where each piece features its own blend of stones and motifs, an allusion to the three acts of George Balanchine’s ballet Jewels. At the heart of each creation, the rich tones of the carillon and music box accurately and delicately relay the complex melodies of three classical music themes:
- Emeralds, set to Pelléas et Mélisande, Op. 80 by Gabriel Fauré (1898)
- Rubies, accompanied by Capriccio for piano and orchestra by Igor Stravinsky (1929)
- Diamonds, adorned by Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 3 (1875).
