anOrdain Porcelain

Profil de collection · 2025

Une direction matérielle distincte développée entièrement en interne : cadrans en porcelaine translucide fabriqués par la spécialiste Cara Louise, offrant une qualité de lumière et de surface complètement différente.

Pourquoi elle compte

Porcelain marks a separate material direction for anOrdain: not just a new colourway but a new craft discipline. It extends the brand’s reputation beyond vitreous enamel into another kiln-fired, hand-finished dial medium while aiming for greater accessibility and batch production than enamel allows.
