Mate Amargo Apple Watch Band in Sterling Silver

Watchcraft

Mate, a herbal drink made from the dried leaves of yerba mate, is the national drink of Uruguay. No matter where you go, you will see people strolling around with a thermos under one arm (for the hot water) and a mate cup in the other. The mate is drunk through a special metal straw called a bombilla that filters the liquid as you drink it. The cup, also called a mate, is traditionally made from calabash gourd. Traditional mates are richly decorated and often trimmed with silver and other metals. It is this traditional art that inspires the design of the Mate Amargo Apple watch band in sterling silver. The Mate Amargo is a narrow Apple watch band, overlaid with sterling silver and decorated with brass beads that are riveted to the band.

Artist Info
"Time as art."



Watchcraft timepieces are constructed from naturally oxidized metals that even after being refined by Milieris’ careful artistic process are intentionally not sealed or coated to protect them from the environment. This artistic design choice of Milieris gives the fourth dimension of “time” a chance to continue the artistic process well after the timepiece has been purchased and worn. This subtle facet of Watchcraft timepieces is a form “legacy creativity.” It gives the artwork a life of its own, beyond creator and wearer. All Watchcraft timepieces are powered by a quality Citizen quartz movement and have a one year warranty from the date of purchase.
