Tsuba Dong Son

The dial of this limited edition features graphical concentric symbols from Dong Son drums, paired with shaped hands bearing the forms of Dong Son spears. The Dong Son culture was a Bronze Age civilisation that flourished in northern Vietnam between 1000 BC and the 1st century AD. Highly skilled in bronze casting, they left behind a rich window into their ancient culture in the form of giant ceremonial Dong Son drums that were used for warfare, mourning, festivals, and prayers.

Sprit, power, prosperity

Decorated with intricate geometric patterns, mythical creatures, warriors, and ritual scenes of daily life, these masterpieces have become symbols of Vietnamese culture from over 2000 years ago. The enduring legacy and distinctive style and aesthetic of the Dong Son has inspired the creation of this edition of Tsuba.

The dial of the Tsuba Dong Son is hand finished and made from 18K gold. It comes in two colours, Ultramarine and Slate, and is available on strap or integrated bracelet but are not interchangeable. 

The completion of the Tsuba Dong Son timepiece in 2024 marks one hundred years since the discovery of the Dong Son civilisation in 1924, and its launch in 2025 marks the 80th anniversary of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.
