History Dimensions

Wood holds what time cannot erase.

The ginkgo biloba has lived through centuries. It is a symbol of longevity, resilience and hope. Its leaves open like someone holding on to time, showing us an autumn gold, a beauty that endures.

Jacky Cavallari trained at the École Boulle and is today one of the few living masters of marquetry - the art that gives wood its colour, texture and life. With a precision that time does not rush.

For this purpleheart box, the artisan chose four natural woods, such as ipê, guava wood, limba (fraké) and maple, and with them composed the ginkgo biloba fan. Layer upon layer, using the same traditional marquetry technique employed in the 18th century.

A box to remind us of the value of what withstands time.
