THE PIAGET UNIVERSE
originality and elegance they already expressed at those times and which characterise the soul of the Maison”. Authentic innovator in the watches and jewellery sector, Georges-Edouard Piaget personifies the creative flair of those who believed in the artistic values and power of the image from the outset. The foundation of his pioneering trademark begins from the first studio of La Côte-aux- Fées, dedicated to the production of high precision movements, to arrive at the end of the 1950s, to ultra-flat movements which went on to become the distinguishing element of the Maison and the cornerstone of the Altiplano collection. To this day, from generation to generation, the “Ateliers de l’Extraordinaire” host the most skilled craftsmen and their unparalleled experience, able to transform gold, stones and gemstones into magnificent works of art. Over these 150 year, Maison Piaget has created emblematic and extraordinary works, which have merged into the best-known collections, such as Altiplano, Piaget Polo, Limelight Gala, Possession, Piaget Sunlight, Piaget Rose and Extremely Piaget.
