Feathers are soft-edged and layered; cloisonné divides everything into hard-walled cells of gold wire. Suggesting down and depth without the wires reading as a cage is the whole difficulty, and it takes an enameller who knows where to stop drawing. The white owl compounds the problem by working almost entirely in a single colour, where the modelling has to come from tone rather than contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe white gold case measures 34.5 mm. The owl is executed in cloisonné enamel over gold, the whites and greys built through successive translucent firings until the plumage has depth. A self-winding movement shows hours and minutes only. The watch is finished on an alligator strap. The \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/wristaficionado.com\/collections\/patek-philippe-golden-ellipse\"\u003eGolden Ellipse\u003c\/a\u003e case gives the bird an unbroken field to sit in, with no bezel, no subdial and no date window to crop the composition at any edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis exceptional piece is not currently in stock due to its rarity on the market.
