  • Catalogue Essay

    The present watch, cased in yellow, white and pink gold features a stunning bracelet with a geometric design. The bracelet contrasts against a bark finished dial and textured case, really giving the watch a very unique look. Piaget is particularly skilled at making bracelet watches, and the present watch really glimmers and shines on the wrist, the contrasting gold colors suggesting a three dimensional look.

  • Artist Biography

    Piaget

    Swiss • 1874

    Creativity, audacity and know-how are the values that gave Piaget its international reputation and allowed the brand to distinguish itself in the world of fine watchmaking and precision. Founder Georges Edouard Piaget established the company in 1874 and manufactured watch movements. While Piaget is famously recognized today for their elaborate wristwatch and bangle designs, they also mastered the marriage of their high-quality, in-house-produced wristwatches and stunning pieces of jewelry.

    Collectors consider the 1970s as Piaget's era of superb creativity and unbounded designs. During this highly creative period, the brand designed an impressive range of cuff and bracelet watches carved in gold and adorned with exotic hard stones. Admired by most as not only jewelry but also true works of art, the firm's hard stone dial watches remain the most iconic, recognizable and desirable among collectors.
