Administrators TimeTexas Posted June 26, 2022 Administrators Share Posted June 26, 2022 Yesterday we held the first Holthinrichs Virtual Boutique hosted by RedBar Houston. Great event. Learned alot about the brand, Michiel talked about his architectural background and the inspiration for the Ornament 1 and Raw Ornament designs. He was even wearing the first successful prototype of the 3D signature design for which Holthinrichs is recognized. Michiel also explained the intensive, years long development process to create the 3D case. Damiaen took us on a tour of the Atelier in Delft, Netherlands showing us the variety of tools and equipment used to create and hand finish and even providing a begins the scenes look at some of the abating works in progress. A big thank you to Michiel and Damiaen and the entire Holthinrichs team for helping make the Virtual Boutique a success. A few photos from the event. Stay tuned for future events!

Nakkdry Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 That type of collab is really cool. The brand has already greatly upgraded its finishing since the first models ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The brand has already greatly upgraded its finishing since the first models ! Yeah, its good to see they aren't resting on their laurels. We held a virtual boutique a couple weeks ago and they gave a presentation and a tour of the facilities. They are very innovative as far as how they work with a variety of materials, testing out different methods for distressing dials, adding colors, etc. I think they are honing their skills as the plan to continue to grow and eventually move into developing their own movements. They didn't say that, but they certainly seem to be heading in that direction. They are also working to develop their own finishing training program (maybe a finishing school) in the Netherlands.

Administrators TimeTexas Posted July 9, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted July 9, 2022 Just FYI, I think we're going to put on another virtual tour. It will be done in conjunction with RedBar, but we can make it available to others. Shoot me a private message if you're interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
