Peter Tanisman Carrousel Fantasia Watch

Peter Tanisman Carrousel Fantasia Watch
This watch is sort of like a baby's activity center - for adult women who love precious stones. The watch feautres a totally baguette diamond covered case, with a spinning cylinder at the bottom of the case that you can spin with your finger to get that "hand touching and turning emeralds, sapphires, and rubies sensation." Everything a developing high-society socialite requires. Behind the watch hands are columns with invididually set stones that move around with gravity. It's like an all too real version of Bejewelled on your wrist - this is the Peter Tanisman Carrousel Fantasia watch.

The case itself (not sure of the size), is in 18k white gold covered with 161 diamonds (10.86 carats). There are dozens of emeralds, rubies, and sapphires all over it. Inside the watch is most likely a Swiss quartz movement with the crown on the back. The strap is red-colored reptile with an 18k gold strap (that has more diamonds on it). The Carrousel Fantasia watch also comes in other styles with different stones and tones. This luxo-curio will be fun for a few minutes on the wrist.

Disney's Fantasia Inspires New Jewelry Line

Filed under: Jewelry


Disney's Fantasia movie has had an indelible effect on the culture. Its madcap scenes set to classical music have a timeless quality. Walt Disney Signature and nOir jewelry have launched a capsule collection that springs from the exuberant 1940 animated film. The line takes direct inspiration from specific moments in the movie. Prices for the pieces range from $250 to $1000. The Snowball necklace shown above features balls covered in Cubic Zirconia stones in a pave setting. This necklace is inspired by The Nutcracker Suite scene of the Disney classic and sells for $900.
