MAKI-E: Masters of Zhiko are experts in the art of "maki-e" style enamel painting. "Maki-e" in Japanese means "filled up the picture." This style of enamel painting features the most complex techniques of decorative lacquering. The art begins while paint (usually black in color) has not yet congealed, which is then sprinkled with gold or silver powder to create unique designs. The final lacquered coating is made from the sap of what is known as the Chines Lacquer tree, Rhus Verniciflua, which is found is in the highlands of central Asia and parts of Tibet.

HANAMI - SPRING: A seasonal phenomenon that is typical of Japan, the flowering of the cherry trees is the epitome of renewal. From March to the beginning of May, the cherry trees are dressed in their pink hues and shower the country in a hail of petals, like symbols of purity, integrity and longevity. Due to the length of the country, the blossoming of trees does not happen in all regions at the same time, it is rather a progression. Since the beginning of time, the practice of Hanami, or admiration of flowers, has marked and shaped the imagination of the Japanese people.

The front dial is decorated the image of blossoming & flourishing flowers.

The dial on the back of the watch is decorated with the gentle flowing of long willow branches & with a typical Japanese bridge straddling the water.
