Memento Mori, Carpe Noctem Trendy Accessories by Daniel Strom
Memento Mori, Carpe Noctem Trendy Accessories by Daniel Strom
Daniel Strom definitely doesn’t do conventional! The watchmaker, designer and
philosopher loves to play with contrasts, including in potentially disturbing
ways. MEMENTO MORI, CARPE NOCTEM is no exception to this rule and the latest
addition to the Agonium collection is sure to make its own impact. Behind its
solid steel case adorned with skulls lies the same penchant for provocation.
Behind its curves, incisions and cut-outs lies the same attention to detail. And
behind the blood-red almost hypnotic appearance lies the ancestral Japanese art
of Urushi.
Strom sets the scene for this peerless lacquering technique and chooses
Memento Mori, the first model in the Agonium collection, for this new
interpretation. Carpe Diem thus becomes Carpe Noctem “Remember that you will
die. Seize the night”. The bone dial has given way to the red Urushi dial
flirting with a shadowy shade of black. This intense vermilion hue is achieved
by cinnabar pigments colouring this unique lacquer, formerly favoured for its
durability and long-term stability but which quickly distinguished itself as an
ornamental element. The watchmaker gives it pride of place by applying it to the
dial, vividly echoed by the rubies encrusted in the eyes of the skulls taking
their place on the crown and lugs, as well as the overstitching on the bright
red strap. For a full three weeks, the master lacquer artist applies around
twenty successive ultra-fine layers to form a result that is sturdy, fascinating
and always unique.
And for all those to whom Carpe Diem means breaking free of time, Daniel Strom
interprets his philosophy through a range of trendy, mystical accessories. The
Bienne-based watchmaker offers a range of provocative and evocative objects
comprising pendants, belt buckles and a Michaeli ring. Stylish accessories
indeed, but above all reflecting the spirit of the Agonium collection: life,
death and “Memento Mori. Carpe Diem”. Because timepieces do not have a monopoly
on symbolism!
