Grenage

Grenage

Is a method used to create watch dials that was popular in the 1800s but is not commonly used today. With this technique, the dial is made of solid silver and is engraved with intricate designs such as numbers or minute markers. The engraved areas are then carefully filled with lacquer by hand, and once the lacquer hardens, it is polished using diamond paper to create a smooth and shiny surface. Essentially, grenage involves engraving patterns on a silver watch dial and filling those patterns with lacquer to enhance their appearance.
