ART AND MATERIAL

ART AND MATERIAL

Raw material is what first inspires us to dream up our watches.
Each of our creations draws inspiration from the natural beauty of materials, which our partner artisans seize to elevate through a true artistic process.
We wanted to share its pure beauty with you through a few images, which we hope will immerse you in our world and inspire you, in turn, to shape your own nature.

FEATHERS

A true symbol of connection to nature, working with feathers was an obvious choice for KOPPO. A material, but also a meticulous craft, which gives our dials an infinite delicacy.

At KOPPO, we are sensitive to animal welfare, which is why we select feathers that have fallen and been collected during molting periods. We choose them for their beautiful colors and high quality.

Once collected, our feathers are meticulously cut and then assembled in Brittany by specialists skilled in this noble material.

Practiced since ancient times by Native American tribes, the art of plumassery won over Europe in the 19th century, but today only a few specialized workshops remain. A craft rich in history, which we were determined to perpetuate.

WOOD

We have always been surrounded by wood. From our offices in Annecy, we contemplate its evolution through the seasons: essences, colors, textures, an inexhaustible source of inspiration and infinite possibilities.

From collection to collection, we select the most beautiful wood species from Europe and beyond, those that will ensure a natural and elegant look.

The cutting and assembly of our dials are carried out in Brittany, in a workshop specializing in wood marquetry and a partner of KOPPO from the very beginning. In the hands of these skilled artisans, the designs come to life and reveal all the natural beauty of the chosen species.

MOTHER-OF-PEARL

Mother-of-pearl inspires us with pure elegance, softness, and femininity. It is this subtle alliance that led us to make it one of the key materials of our dials, sometimes used in its natural aspect, sometimes worked into discreet and refined patterns.

Due to its origin, mother-of-pearl has always fascinated. Coming from seashells and highly prized for its iridescent reflections, it is used to make jewelry but also in decoration.

Inspired by the natural beauty of this sacred material, our artisans imagine neat dials with millimeter-precise cuts, for a delicate and distinguished result.

OUR VEGETABLE-TANNED LEATHERS

Hand-stitched in Besançon, our leather straps are vegetable-tanned, a process that uses 100% biodegradable tannins derived from bark, leaves, or even plant roots, which is more environmentally friendly and also better for our skin.

Stiffer and very resistant, vegetable leather has good structure and better moisture absorption. Sought after for its deep and nuanced shades, it darkens in daylight and evolves as it ages. It is this patina that gives vegetable leather all its charm.
