Piaget’s latest high‑jewellery collection, Shapes of Extraleganza, marks the second instalment in a trilogy that channels the maison’s bold, avant‑garde design heritage from the Swinging Sixties and Seventies.

Rather than settle into familiar scripts, the collection reinvents exuberance through sculptural form. Across 51 pieces — necklaces, cuff watches, rings and earrings — Piaget explores geometric boldness: zig‑zags, squares, waves and triangular motifs are woven together in harmony and contrast  . It’s a studied play of shape, light and colour, with Pop‑Art and Op‑Art nods that feel thoroughly modern.

Gemstones aren’t just accents — they are the subject. Suites like Kaleidoscope Lights use carved stones (rhodochrosite, sugilite, verdite) for op‑Art linear mosaics, while Flowing Curves highlights freeform black opals set in hand‑hammered gold  . The Wave Illusion line dazzles with spinels and sapphires in a vibrant Memphis‑era style, while Curved Artistryshowcases yellow sapphires cradling secret‑dial ring watches — an unexpected fusion of jewellery and horology.

Timepieces remain pivotal: Piaget blends haute‑joaillerie with haute‑horlogerie. Cuff watches pave the way for flowing bracelets; classic chainwork blends into rotating bezels, echoing the playful spirit from 1969’s first Jewellery Watch series.

Finally, Endless Motion — a kinetic tabletop sculpture — emerges as a star piece. A mobile set with ornamental stones, it brings Piaget’s daring creativity and craftsmanship into three‑dimensional movement.

Why It Matters for 2025

• Art meets luxury – Piaget’s hit‑and‑run collaborations with artists like Dali and Warhol form the blueprint here, mixing high culture and design .

• Shape‑first storytelling – Rather than gemstones, it’s geometry that leads—an editorial‑ready take on jewellery.

• Bold, not retro – It’s not about nostalgia. Piaget’s CEO, Benjamin Comar, points to a renewed hunger for the audacious energy of its 1970s heyday, reinterpreted for today’s connoisseurs .
