‘Black Cat’ Is Lucky Omen For Alexander Shorokhoff

Black cats are a popular choice in art due to their symbolism and aesthetics. Various renowned artists throughout art history have depicted black cats in their paintings.

Alexander Shorokhoff has also explored this theme, and for the first time, a cat appears as a motif in his collection. Crafted from black mother-of-pearl, it partially conceals itself on the dial, but its presence is unmistakable. The cat exudes playfulness, courage, and a hint of curiosity towards the butterfly that has found its place in the upper part of the dial. This little work of art is simply enchanting!

The total work of art is presented in a rectangular stainless steel case measuring 36 x 36 millimeters, akin to a masterpiece within a frame. The watch is powered by either a hand-engraved and refined automatic movement or a manual winding caliber. Both versions are limited to 19 pieces each. Each variant is accompanied by a green ostrich leather strap with a stainless steel buckle, further accentuating its elegance.

This delightful timepiece has been awarded by the DNA Paris Design Awards in two categories for Product Design; Design for People and Fashion & Lifestyle receiving a well deserved Honorable Mention.
