Schaefer & Companions is an avant-garde artistic-luxury horology brand specializing in meticulously crafted, métiers d’art timepieces. The brand’s inaugural offering, the Solune Antarctica collection, features interpretations of the frozen continent brought to life through exquisite techniques such as enamelling, engraving, micro-painting, and straw marquetry. These watches evoke emotional depth and natural serenity—crafted collaboratively by master artisans known as “Companions”. Renowned for its fusion of contemporary design with artisanal expression, the brand’s signature angular “Solune” case refracts light in dynamic ways—offering both aesthetic modernity and a meditative presence on the wrist. Each piece becomes a unique canvas where creative freedom and precision artistry intertwine, appealing to connoisseurs who value storytelling, craftsmanship, and a poetic sensibility in horology
