Description:
Hi, I have a beautifully elegant ladies Erte timepiece. Limited Edition brand new in it's box.
IF YOU DON'T KNOW OF HIM, PLEASE RESEARCH ERTE BEFORE MAKING YOUR OFFERS.This beautiful wrist watch is from the Erte collection.
From an original design by the "Father of Art Deco", this watch is a unique and special Erte' design.
Erte', whose full name was Romain de Tirtoff, designed his watch collection as one of his last achievements, before his death in 1990, at the age of 97.
This watch has a Mother-of-Pearl face with gold hands and detail. The frame is gold tone, in a flower-like shape. The Erte' signature can be seen at the five o'clock space on the face. An art deco design is above and below the frame, where the band is attached to the watch. This very unique and beautiful band is made up of four rows of small faux pearls, which run along the entire length of the band. There are two gold tone links to secure and adjust the length. The two lengths are for 6 1/2" and 7". The Erte' signature can be seen on the face of the watch as well as on the buckle.
Comes in an Erte' watch box.
