Hand-crafted watch dials in traditional grand feu enamel on metal

Immerse yourself in the captivating world of enamel...

Nestled in the heart of the Vallée de Joux in Switzerland, one of the cradles of watchmaking, the Atelier d'émail Maëlle Constant specialises in creating watch dials in grand feu enamel.

Enamel is an incredible and delicate material, which lends itself to many equally exciting techniques. Each piece I make is the result of centuries of traditional craftsmanship, which I'm determined to perpetuate.

Let me transport you to the fascinating world of enamel applied to Fine Watchmaking: an exceptional craft capable of transmitting intense emotions, engraved in time.

Let's imagine together a unique dial for your exceptional timepiece

I'm passionate about my work, bringing to life dials of unparalleled singularity, making the watch they adorn an exceptional object.

Each piece I create is crafted with the utmost care and precision. I carefully select enamels of exceptional quality, which give my creations incomparable brilliance and luminosity. Enamel, which is unalterable over time, will allow you to marvel at your watch day after day, through the decades. 

Beyond the immutable brilliance of enamel, these timepieces carry a history that transcends generations. Today they embellish your wrist, tomorrow they will make your loved ones dream. In this way, the skills of enamelling endure, like a timeless heritage, linking people and eras.

I offer collectors and enthusiasts the chance to work with me to create a unique dial that will enhance their watch or make an exceptional gift.

I also bring my expertise to watchmaking houses that are keen to offer their customers the very best, and who entrust me with the hand-crafted production of enamel dials in small or medium-sized series.

I'd be delighted to work with you to bring your project to life... Let's convey all the emotion of traditional grand feu enamel through exceptional pieces imagined together!

A few words about myself...

Trained as a watchmaker, I officially created l'Atelier d'émail Maëlle Constant in October 2020, where I work as a freelance enameller.

Although I have now decided to devote myself entirely to my own workshop and to enamelling, my training and experience in watchmaking have given me a wealth of knowledge that is a real asset to my customers...
