Works in Permanent Collections
Museum acquisition is the most exacting form of recognition — a curatorial judgement that a work merits permanent preservation in the record of human craft. By that measure, the work of Maison Courvoisier stands in exceptional company, held across three continents.

Thirteen pieces, in the world’s largest watch museum and the Maison’s founding city.
Patek Philippe Museum — Geneva

A repeating watch, gold and enamel, 19th century (Object No. 17.101.48), entered by the bequest of Laura Frances Hearn in 1917.
