For Piaget, colour has never been a detail. It is a code, a statement, almost a secret language running through the Maison’s history since the 1950s, when the invention of the ultra-thin 9P calibre opened new aesthetic possibilities for dials crafted from ornamental stones. Today, that chromatic vocation returns to centre stage with Colours of Extraleganza, the concluding chapter of the High Jewellery trilogy that began with Essence of Extraleganza in 2024 and continued with Shapes of Extraleganza in 2025.

Composed of 65 creations, the collection celebrates the meeting point between extravagance and elegance, two words that perfectly define the Piaget attitude. Inspired by the creative effervescence of the 1960s and 1970s, Colours of Extraleganza builds a universe in which gold, diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, rubies, opals, mother-of-pearl and tiger’s eye converse through vibrant, never predictable combinations.

At the heart of the collection lies a precise idea: colour not as a simple ornament, but as a material in its own right. Gemstones become living presences, capable of generating energy through contrasts, reflections and textures. Gold, too, is treated as a shade within the Piaget palette, worked, engraved and sculpted to amplify the luminosity of the stones.

Among the standout creations is the Blue Illusions necklace, a unique piece that required almost 900 hours of work in the Maison’s ateliers. The deep blue of a cushion-cut sapphire from Madagascar meets the lagoon green of a Paraíba tourmaline and the iridescence of a black opal, in a geometric composition that multiplies light around the neck.

The story continues with Flamboyant Links, a reinterpretation of the sautoir watch first presented by Piaget in 1969 as part of the legendary 21st Century Collection. In this new version, rose gold meets tiger’s eye and mandarin garnet, giving life to a transformable jewel that can become a choker or a watch-bracelet.

The Gold Swirl parure looks instead to the sinuous lines of the 1970s, reinterpreted through a contemporary sensibility. Rose gold, diamonds, tourmalines and fiery orange opals create a precious grammar of movement and texture, while the gadroon motif, a signature of Piaget watchmaking, appears for the first time in a High Jewellery parure.

Finally, Gems Pop takes the collection into a more graphic and daring territory, inspired by the spirit of the Memphis movement. Mandarin orange, candy pink, white opal and gold come together in a lively, almost architectural set, where jewellery becomes a small chromatic sculpture.

With Colours of Extraleganza, Piaget does not simply present a High Jewellery collection. It creates an aesthetic manifesto, faithful to its history yet looking firmly ahead: an ode to the freedom of colour, to artisanal mastery and to that unmistakably Piaget ability to transform excess into elegance.
