Preserving cultural savoir-faire with The Metropolitan Museum of Art


Preserving cultural savoir-faire with The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The latest initiative in the multi-dimensional partnership of Vacheron Constantin and @metmuseum is a unique artisan residency programme.

Three artisans, whose practice engages with traditional knowledge and technical skills, will embark on an 18-month adventure that brings them in close contact with both The Met’s collections in New York and the craftspeople and workshops of Vacheron Constantin in Geneva. A special event at The Met Cloisters on June 5th presented the selected artists.

Vacheron Constantin’s support of this programme continues the ambition of the Maison’s founder, who established transmission of savoir-faire as a key value from the Maison’s very first apprenticeship contract.
