What is a mother-of-pearl dial and what is special about it?
A mother-of-pearl dial is crafted from the iridescent inner layer of certain mollusk shells, primarily oysters and abalone. This natural material is prized for its unique visual properties, exhibiting a shimmering play of colors that can include whites, creams, pinks, blues and greens. The exact hues and patterns vary from one piece to another, making each mother-of-pearl dial truly individual.
What makes a mother-of-pearl dial special is its inherent beauty and the way it interacts with light. The nacreous structure of the shell refracts light, creating a subtle, dynamic luster that shifts as the viewing angle changes. This gives each watch dial a distinctive and luxurious character.
At Jowissa, we often feature mother-of-pearl dials in our ladies' collections to enhance the elegance and sophistication of our timepieces. The natural iridescence complements our design aesthetic, adding a touch of unique artistry to each watch. Due to the organic nature of the material, every Jowissa watch with a mother-of-pearl dial is a one-of-a-kind piece, showcasing the beauty of the natural world.
