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.

Musée International de l’Horlogerie — La Chaux-de-Fonds

Thirteen pieces, in the world’s largest watch museum and the Maison’s founding city.

Patek Philippe Museum — Geneva

Courvoisier pieces collected within the private museum of one of the world’s most revered houses — peer recognition of the highest order.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art — New York

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

The British Museum — London

A gold-cased cylinder clock-watch with quarter-striking and music playing two tunes, with moonphase aperture and blued-steel Breguet hands, 1810–1820.

Topkapı Museum — Istanbul

Holdings within the Ottoman imperial collection, reflecting the Maison’s sustained production for the Turkish court.

L.A. Mayer Museum for Islamic Art — Jerusalem

A Sultan Abdülmecid I portrait watch, from the Sir David Salomons Collection.

Musée d’Horlogerie du Locle — Le Locle

Pieces in the château des Monts collection, in the cradle of the family’s origins.
