APOLLON AP-051-CGY Title of Knight

The delicate and elegant temple engraving recreates 18th-century French Rococo patterns from the Bourbon dynasty. The three-dimensional, deep, beautiful, and intricate "jibori" (hand-chased) engraving is truly a masterpiece of craftsmanship. The thick Wellington-shaped acetate frame, breaking the concept of casual wear, offers a luxurious feel. Adding to the luxury, the see-through "jibori" gold temple core, the onyx cloisonné Ptolemy48 icon armor, and the new integrated cast hinge mechanism at the joint create an even more sophisticated look. Crafted by Japanese artisans boasting world-class technology, the frame's sculptural beauty and voluminous body are born from a "block construction method" where acetate blocks are carved into four parts and then meticulously assembled piece by piece. The polished finish, achieved through hand-polishing, is created through a complex production process supervised by artisans in a Japanese factory.

＊Block construction is a method where parts cut into four shapes are individually inserted into a mold and bonded together with a hydraulic press. This method demands extreme precision for both the mold and the acetate parts, making the frame a true embodiment of Japanese craftsmanship.
