Be it Murano glass, champagne or Swiss watch-making, Europe’s heritage crafts serve as distinct cultural calling cards for each country.

Discover how AR Lenoble matures their reserve wines in magnums under natural cork and staple to obtain the additional brightness and freshness that characterises each grape, and learn about the sophisticated enamelling techniques of cloisonné, champlevé, plique-à-jour with Anita Porchet, the best-known enamel artist working in watches today, born and raised in La Chaux-de-Fonds, in the very heart of Switzerland’s fine watchmaking region.

Meet the craftspeople who are revitalising heritage techniques passed down through generations and watch demonstrations from artisans preserving and reinterpreting classical skills with support from the Michelangelo Foundation, including millinery, glovemaking, leatherworking and stained glass.
