專家說明

The 'ecran' or screen clock was first introduced in 1923 and utilised rock crystal or, as in this instance, carved jade panels in conjunction with an ornate frame. Traditionally utilised in China as desk ornaments for scholars' tables, Cartier created a complimentary design around each screen they purchased, sometimes, where possible, hollowing out the interior to conceal the movement or if not it was placed behind the panel, or between two panels mounted back-to-back.
