THE MOST POETIC COMPLICATION

Any horological function other than displaying the time is known as a ‘complication’.
Not only is the Moon Phase one of the oldest complications, it’s undoubtedly one of the most poetic, tracking the silent progress of lunar cycles day after day. 

A unique Moon

Hammered and polished on its upper, convex face, the moon has a delicate satin finish on the underside.

Each crater is meticulously crafted by hand in the workshop, reflecting the artisans’ painstaking technical commitment to making this Moon something really special.

Maison Alcée’s exclusive finish:
brilliant gratté

The Moon Phase is such a poetic complication! The challenge was to achieve a finish worthy of this poetry for our Persée. The brilliant gratté finish has been developed exclusively by Maison Alcée, combining gratté and hammered techniques to produce a sparkling, frosted effect and a real sense of depth.

This finish on the Moon bridge is beautifully set off by a fine circular-grained surround.

Lacquered night sky

The gilded constellation of Persée is sublimated by lacquered stars amid a midnight blue night sky. The surround is graced by delicately lacquered moon phase numbers.

Our Moon Phase features the constellation of Persée, one of the most ancient in the heavens.

The set bears its name: Persée, the father of Alcée in Greek mythology, becomes Persée, the child of Maison Alcée.
