CALLEDORA
OUR STORY
Calledora is a brand that revives the artisan soul and the extraordinary Venetian watchmaking history, intertwining two precious traditions: the mechanical innovation that, since the late nineteenth century, made Venice the home of the first Italian watch production. Each of our watches is a bridge between past and present, between precision and splendor.
CALLEDORA'S SOUL
Our strong connection to the Venetian territory is, with pride, our starting point for creating modern watchmaking built on precision and vision.
Calledora aims to tell the story of Venice to the world, with its light, its colours, and its fragility. The use of glass enriches the dials; the decorative elements of our watches transform each piece into a jewel of transparencies and reflections.
Calledora is therefore a harmonious dialogue between engineering and art; the details of our watches tell the story of a suspended island, of a craftsmanship that has enchanted the world for centuries.
THE SYMBOLS OF CALLADORA
With Calledora, time is clad in glass and symbols linked to the Serenissima Republic: the Winged Lion, also known as the Lion of St. Mark, often holding a sword and supporting an open book inscribed with the phrase "Pax tibi Marce, evangelista meus"; the Rialto Bridge, the oldest and most famous of the four bridges crossing the Grand Canal; Murrina, the artisanal technique of Murano Artistic Glass.
It is an experience that combines precision, tradition, and beauty – a tribute to Venice, now literally on your wrist.
THE CALLEDORA LOGO
The Calledora logo draws inspiration from an architectural detail that encapsulates the soul of Venice: the quatrefoil motif adorning the columns of the Doge's Palace. A symbol spanning centuries, it represents harmony, elegance, and the perfect balance between solids and voids that characterizes the lagoon city. Transformed into a modern emblem, it becomes the seal of a time that flows between history and innovation.
The name Calledora, on the other hand, comes from the union of the Greek words kalós ("beautiful") and doron ("gift"), meaning "the gift of beauty." A direct reference to the essence of Venice, a city that has always given the world artistic splendor, ingenuity, and wonder. Thus, every Calledora watch becomes more than a timepiece: a precious gift of beauty, a piece of Venice to carry with you.
