Il est des noms dans l’histoire horlogère qui font écho à bien plus qu’une montre… C’est le cas des Jaquet-Droz, horlogers suisses du 18e siècle à l’horizon international, dont les pendules d’apparat, les androïdes prodigieux, les cages à oiseaux à la mode, les montres de poche à scènes mouvantes ou les tabatières de collection font toujours rêver les passionné-e-s. C’est également le cas de la Maison Jaquet Droz, qui s’inspire de ce riche héritage pour réinterpréter techniques et esthétiques qui fascinent les collectionneur-se-s.
Abondamment illustré, cet ouvrage propose de redécouvrir leurs chefs d’oeuvres mécaniques ainsi que ceux issus de la Maison Jaquet Droz, dont la renaissance et l’histoire récente sont retracées ici. 

Some names in watchmaking history resonate far beyond a single timepiece… This is the case for the Jaquet-Droz, 18th-century Swiss watchmakers with an international reach. Their opulent clocks, astonishing automatons, fashionable birdcages, pocket watches with moving scenes, and collectible snuffboxes continue to captivate enthusiasts. The Jaquet Droz brand also draws inspiration from this rich heritage, reinterpreting techniques and aesthetics that fascinate collectors.
Lavishly illustrated, this book showcases their mechanical masterpieces alongside creations from the modern Jaquet Droz brand, whose revival and recent history are also explored.
