AGE OLD IDEAS:
Past Artists Inspire Designer
Of Popular Swiss Watches
By LORRAINE BUTLER
Martha Widmer, young Swiss
watch stylist, is claimed to be the
youngest person in the world in
this field.
The watch designer is still in
her early twenties, and has al-
ready had four years experience,
in watch styling in the employ
of one of Switzerland's leading
timepiece firms.
* * *
MISS WIDMER finds inspira-
tion everywhere for her exquisite
drawings that are later trans-
formed into precious metals. Oc-
casionally she will glance through
an old book picturing ancient
time-pieces in hopes of obtaining
new ideas.
One day it may be a con-
temporary Dutch fence that in-
spires her, and again an intri-
cate design on an ancient Gre-
cian urn may take her fancy.
Miss Widmer frequently roams,
the museums and art galleries of
Paris, Rome and Vienna in search'
of ideas. Although she is Swiss by:
both birth and residence, she
considers Paris to be the art cen-
ter of the world.
IN HER travels Miss Widmerj
does not spend all of her time,
amid dusty relics of another era, '
Miss Widmer has gained her
reputation as a designer of up-
to-date, fashionably correct
watches.
She considers a watch as much
a part of a costume as a hat or
purse, and thus styles them to
suit specific occasions and attire.
* * *
ONE DESIGN may be drawn in
an hour, while another may re-
quire an entire day. Other de-
signs, no matter how diligently
she works, may not be the way
she intended and must therefore
be "put on the shelf to ripen,"
Miss Widmer says.
Miss Widmer says that once
the basic idea is completely
clear in her mind, the draw-
ing is a relatively simple mat-
ter.
She has art training as well as
natural ability which contribute;
to her ease of execution. Miss
Widmer's talent ig shared by her
father, mother and brother, all of
whom paint as a hobby.
** *
M I S S WIDMER originally
wished to become a concert pian-
ist, but her father persuaded her
to abandon the idea.
Through his encouragement
she participated in admission
examinations for the Zurich
Art School and later she obtain-
ed her position as an appren-
tice watch stylist.
Miss Widmer explained that her
father saw an advertisement in-
serted by a Lucerne firm in a
newspaper. "He wrote an answer
to the ad. I signed-and got the
job."
In appearance Miss Widmer is
said to resemble an American
school girl and her interests are
very similar. American jazz ranks
high with her, even though the
names of her favorite performers
are "difficult to remember when
you don't speak English."
Washing Probler]
The new emphasis on cotton
dresses for spring brings up a
washing problem. To keep cottons
fresh and new looking, moisten
extra soiled spots with water, then
rub soap flakes directly into the
spot with the fingertips or a soft
brush. This loosens stubborn dirt
and eliminates necessity for scrub-
bing when the entire dress is
washed.
