Flowers emblazoned with colour, lush green foliage and dazzling plumage… Brought to life by infinite flecks of paint, the Slim d'Hermès Mille Fleurs du Mexique's mother-of-pearl dial is transformed into a true work of art at the tip of the artist's brush. So as to bring out the richness of the design, which is taken from a Hermès silk scarf by Laetitia Bianchi, a specialist in miniature painting applies some twenty layers of colour, with infinite care. Each layer must be fired at 90° before the next one can be added. A monument of patience, the dial is enclosed in a white gold case. Beneath it, another form of art, mechanical this time, takes the stage with an extra-thin movement made by Hermès.
