Arceau Petite Lune ciel étoilé
Adorned with textured mother-of-pearl, midnight blue lacquer and sparkling diamonds, the Arceau Petite Lune watch in gem-set steel extends an invitation to embark a journey beneath the starry canopy of space.
The Arceau watch designed by Henri d’Origny in 1978 combines understatement with creativity in a round shape resting on a stirrup, a nod to the brand’s equestrian roots.
Its steel case featuring asymmetrical lugs and a gem-set crown is adorned with 70 diamonds using a cut-down setting technique that highlights the diamonds’ many facets.
This setting frames a celestial dial that captures the gaze and propels it into a star-studded night sky.

The moon appears in an iridescent glow, while a constellation of seven diamonds lights up the surrounding darkness.
