Maison Piaget celebrates its 150th anniversary with a virtuoso High Jewellery watch collection highlighting the extravagance and elegance of a unique style. Paying tribute to its incomparably masterful use of gold and colour, the watchmaking and jewellery Maison reinvents itself through some hundred bold, captivating pieces where the fluidity of cuff bracelets and necklaces and the radiance of the gemstones adorning them are magnified by the excellence of perfectly accomplished savoir-faire.
It took more than two years of research to assemble this exceedingly rare array of round emeralds, showcased on a unique white gold necklace. The beauty of this piece, set with more than 30 carats of green gems, arises from its interlacing links, which offer a brilliant play on texture and various cuts of gemstones: round and baguette-cut emeralds, brilliant-cut diamond paving, and gold engraved with the Palace Decor. This flawlessly draping piece is completed by a divine ring, set with a Colombian emerald of 5.72 carats mounted atop a round-and-baguette diamond marquetry design. A second ring, two pairs of earrings, and an ultra-slim watch with a flying tourbillon movement further complement the set.
It is no small feat to unearth some forty Colombian baguette-cut emeralds, but here the accomplishment takes the form of an exceptional watch ornamented with 26.11 carats of the green stones. This one-of-a-kind piece drips with a mosaic of baguette-cut emeralds and diamonds, which even overflow along the sides, bringing the piece a truly original look. Articulated and underscored with a coil of yellow gold, each element is mounted on a different level to accentuate the depth of this creation. The exquisite refinement of this watch, with a dial in green enamel, demonstrates the mastery with which Piaget revisits its heritage. It is accompanied by a ring featuring a bold design where diamonds are offset from the setting, scattering from an emerald of 2.53 carats.
This transformable cuff bracelet in gold, pink sapphire, and spessartite garnet perfectly condenses the jeweller’s creativity and savoir-faire. In addition to the couture influence of the jewellery’s shape, the Piaget taste for carefully wrought asymmetry emerges through rose gold Milanese mesh edged with diamonds and topped with an articulated bracelet in textured gold latticework. Engraved with the famous Palace Decor – which the jeweller designed in the early 1960s –, this precious metal is set with a pink sapphire of 4.42 carats from Madagascar and a spessartite garnet of 6.40 carats.
The blue symphony – an undeniably distinctive Piaget signature – is expressed in this V-shaped necklace, richly ornamented with gemstones. At the centre of the piece, an oval Madagascan blue sapphire of 13.05 carats and a double row of sapphires, tourmalines, and marquise-cut aquamarine are surrounded by a cascade of opals, turquoise and diamonds, as well as Palace Decor-engraved gold. Coordinating with it is the jeweller’s great speciality, an ear adornment, which casts a magical spell around the ear. A ring completes this jewellery set, of which each piece features the added flourish of being engraved on the back with the Palace Decor.
