Notable for watches embellished with ornamental stones, Piaget also makes the dial a canvas for showcasing its métiers d'art, in the latest timepieces under the "Sunlight Escape" high-jewellery collection.
The Swiss maison drew inspiration from natural phenomena, stunning landscape and wonderful wildlife, in adorning the dial of the ultra-thin Altiplano in white-gold or pink-gold cases.
Lapis lazuli renders celestial shade on the face of the Infinite Blue watch while chrysoprase gives luminous colour evoking the Aurora Borealis on the Night Illusion watch.
Another piece inspired by the Northern Lights, the Green Borealis watch features feather marquetry with small, polished white gold dotting the blue and deep-purple background in depicting nature's dazzling light display.
White and golden feather marquetry gives the Golden Dunes watch a dreamy 3D dial inspired by reflections of the sun on snow.
The poetic collection continues with the Ice Crack watch showcasing meticulous enamelled engraving in creating an alluring wave of ice cracks revealing the blue sea under them.
Sunlight falling on vast white plains is captured by stitching a radiant motif in pink-gold threads on a white-silk embroidered dial of the Solar Energy watch.
Piaget's tribute to nature also features beautiful bears in two artistic timepieces.
The ancient technique of wood marquetry encrusted in a mother-of-pearl dial portrays the unconditional love of a mother bear and her cub against a snow backdrop in the Polar Emotion watch.
Bulino engraving, with its light and shadow, miniaturises the majestic creature on the Wild Splendor watch, which is the only model in the collection without diamonds.
The other limited editions are set with brilliant-cut or its combination with baguette-cut stones for a sparkling métiers d'art timepieces.
