[영어광고] 카르티에, Cartier Savoir-Faire: Coussin de Cartier
까르띠에 Cartier International SNC 는 보석, 가죽, 시계 제품을 디자인, 제조, 유통 및 판매하는 프랑스 명품 대기업으로, 1847년 프랑스 파리에서 루이 프랑수아 까르띠에( Louis-François Cartier, 1819–1904)가 설립한 보석 전문 회사입니다.
까르띠에가 만든 명품 보석 시계, Coussin de Cartier 커머셜이 있어서, 공유해 보려고 하는데, Coussion (영어: Cushion)기능이 가능한 형상기억의 Gold Mesh과 3D Printing 기술을 사용했다는 설명이네요.
Cartier Savoir-Faire: Coussin de Cartier
For Cartier, the most important part of "savoir-faire" is the union
between creative innovation and technical challenge.
Our challenge: to design a watch case that is soft, flexible, and fully paved.
Starting with the design.
Searching for a classic watch shapre from the Carties collection: the cushion.
Pushing it further by making it flexible.
A radical idea from the design studio, presented as a challenge to the manufacture.
To achieve this, the laboratory developed a gold mesh of 517 mobile elements.
A puzzle that was made possible using new technology and 3D printing.
As Cartier, time can also be counted in pixels. Continuing to innovate.
Underneath this flexible mesh is a new technological achievement:
a shape memory piece that allows the mesh to stretch and tighten again.
An elasticity test, carried out 50,000 times, guarantees that it will always return to its initial shape.
Taking its time.
The Coussin de Cartier watch was developed over 2 and a half years.
Making extremes coexist.
The watchmakers' challenge was to integrate a precise and delicate movement into this soft creation,
while protecting it with a rigid and water-resistant case.
Revealing sensoriality. (* senoriality: 경이로움, 놀라움)
The watch's cushion is composed of more than 1,000 precious stones.
The variety of diameters and colours makes the setter's work even more complex.
The gold mesh is 3D printed on rigid supports that hold it in place during the setting process.
They are then cut by the jeweller to free the mesh.
15 hours of finishing and assembly give the cushion its remarkable flexibility.
Our savoir-faire is a constant dialogue between our designers, engineers, jewellers, and watchmakers
who unite the "savoir" and the "faire" all with one fine line.
