With this new creative collection, named Possession Vibrant Palace, Piaget introduces the use of ornamental stones on its iconic collection. A masterful interplay of turquoise, sodalite and dumortierite in shades of blue as delicate as they are deep, infusing gold with a unique aura and celebrating the art of colour.
A Legacy of Colour
A watchmaking house that began making jewellery in the early 1960s, Piaget has always devoted its horological expertise to creating sculptural jewellery, reaching new creative heights in 1969 with the ‘21st Century Collection’ introducing watches as precious as jewels. The Maison revolutionised the creative use of colour from the moment it designed its very first exterior display windows, such as that belonging to the historic Salon Piaget in 1959, or those featuring in the 1970s campaigns designed by Italian photographer Alberto Rizzo, which followed on from the Op Art movement. Blue became a pillar of the Maison’s identity and shaped the beginnings of its visionary explorations. It formed the contours of its creative journey, embodying its sensibility, refinement and culture. Variations of blue, so eminently Piaget, call to mind the skies of La Côte-aux-Fées, as well as the azure and pop-art vibrancy of the Riviera, which define the Maison’s aesthetic.
The very first Possession rings, launched in 1990, marked a turning point in Piaget’s story, reinventing the relationship between gold, design and circular motion. Since then, Possession has continued to evolve and to grow richer, playing with shapes, materials and light. The Possession Pop and Decor Palace collections intensified the influence of the Maison’s imagination and legacy of craftsmanship. With this new collection, Piaget reasserts the couture identity at the heart of Possession, now innovating by adding a new dimension to the art of infinite circular motion, as rotation remains the range’s key feature.
A Visionary Blue
At Piaget, each shade is a material, and material is, above all, a question of colour. Blue embodies the most iconic creations that stem from the Maison’s savoir-faire, appearing over the course of its history in unique hues and a wide range of styles. Piaget blue is a legacy to be passed on, an intimate link between tradition and the future. With its mineral nature, materials come to life. The bright radiance of turquoise pairs beautifully with the depth of sodalite and dumortierite. Together, these three stones provide the wearer with an infinite range of possibilities.
Possession Vibrant Palace awakens a new dimension. Enriched with pieces that are both poetic and eloquent, the collection introduces a stunning hard stone mosaic, combining the signature gold engraving of Decor Palace with captivating ornamental stones. Accented by precious details that blend the brilliance of rose gold and polished gadroons with half-moon-set diamonds and colourful stones, each piece plays with asymmetry, rooted in airy yet graphic shapes. Each stone is unique, stemming from the Maison’s age-old savoir-faire and making every piece of jewellery exceptional. In these living masterpieces, the texture of stones, the eclectic use of square and oval shapes, the depth of shades and the resonance of light intertwine, in the style of a painting composed of vivid, shifting contrasts. Meticulously cut, delicate turquoises, azure sodalites and captivating dumortierites blend harmoniously in a hypnotic mosaic, enshrining each piece as a precious talisman. With a subtle echo to the amulets that have enchanted human imagination since the dawn of time, Piaget revives this vision, transforming each piece of jewellery into a protective gem. The collection’s aesthetics intimately convey this symbolism, filling each sparkling jewel with a deeper meaning. The pieces’ circular shape, a universal symbol for prosperity and luck shared by many cultures, intrinsically lends them a protective dimension.
Adorning the Present Moment
Staying true to Piaget’s legacy of colour, each piece showcases a vibrant new sparkle in its iconic design, energised by the intensity of magnetic blues. Possession Vibrant Palace celebrates the Maison’s expertise with every detail, elevating every version of femininity by highlighting its uniqueness. This playful ode to elegance honours the Maison’s creative roots, its ingenious daring and its exceptional savoir-faire. Each rotating element, a unique feature of Possession epitomised by a turning medallion, encourages a unique gesture that acknowledges the preciousness of the present moment.
Possession’s hypnotic charm lies in its movement. It embodies the spirit of joyful hedonism so typical of Piaget, encouraging the wearer to follow their intuition and face the present moment with sophistication and elegance. Enriched with swirling blue, the iconic rotation explores a new form of beauty. Each ring, bracelet or medallion, crowned with colourful facets, acts as a precious ally, inviting each person to reveal their uniqueness through everyday jewellery or more formal versions. Each piece opens up a world of one’s own, where emotions flow freely, forming a secret channel to memories that light up the promise of tomorrow and intensify the present moment.
