Alkuperä - Provenienssi
Consigned by the family to the first owner, with the letter below.
"Folke was a devoted lover of art — the kind of person who genuinely believed that art could lift us out of the sometimes “grey routine” of everyday life and make it a little bigger, a little richer. And he didn’t settle for simply appreciating art — he was always keen to support young, not yet established artists, often with both his time, his engagement, and his money. It was something he truly cared deeply about.
When I was a child, he often took me to art museums. I’ll be honest — at the time, I wasn’t always as enthusiastic. As an eight-year-old, I would much rather have been running around on a football pitch. But something still stayed with me. Those visits opened up a world that I’ve carried with me throughout my life, even if I didn’t fully understand it back then.
So even though I can’t point to a specific anecdote connected to these particular watches, it still feels like something he would have appreciated. Because they carry the same idea: that there is something in what is created, in the aesthetic, that can make us pause — and perhaps even lift our gaze for a moment."
