EXTRALEGANZA, THE CREATIVE HERITAGE OF PIAGET HIGH JEWELRYThe Extraleganza collection embodies the very essence of Piaget High Jewelry: an art of creation where boldness meets elegance, and where each piece becomes an expression of absolute artistic freedom. At the heart of the Swiss mountains, within an environment defined by a deliberately restrained palette, the Maison Piaget has, since its earliest days, created a universe of remarkable chromatic intensity and creative richness. From this tension between rigor and imagination emerged a singular signature—one that finds its fullest expression today in Extraleganza.High Jewelry creations and High Jewelry watches converse as wearable works of art, shaped by artisans and designers for whom creation has never known limits.
A FOUNDING VISION BORN IN LA CÔTE-AUX-FÉESThe story of Extraleganza takes root in 1874 in La Côte-aux-Fées, when Georges-Édouard Piaget devoted the long winters of the Jura to crafting watch movements. From the very beginning, his exacting standards of precision and his pursuit of ultra-thinness defined his identity, laying the foundations of a Maison guided by a principle that would become its manifesto: always to do better than necessary.This creative independence, developed over generations, has enabled Piaget to master every savoir-faire, from luxury watchmaking to High Jewelry. In Geneva, the Maison established its own workshops, bringing together watchmakers, goldsmiths, gemologists, and engravers around a shared vision: to push the boundaries of what is possible.
SHAPES OF EXTRALEGANZA: FORMS, COLORS, AND VOLUMES IN MOTIONThe Extraleganza 2025 collection delves into the heart of this visionary heritage with Shapes of Extraleganza. This line explores a rich and dynamic formal language, composed of interlocking shapes, layered elements, and sculptural compositions. Squares, circles, triangles, waves, and zigzags engage in a subtle interplay of textures, light, and volume.The Kaleidoscope Lights sets revisit the use of ornamental stones through vibrant linear mosaics inspired by optical art. Flowing Curves, meanwhile, celebrates organic, fluid lines inherited from the 1970s back-to-nature movement. These creations find a natural resonance in High Jewelry watches, where the dial becomes a space for total artistic expression.
ENDLESS MOTION, THE PINNACLE OF EXTRALEGANZAThe Endless Motion collection represents the culmination of the Extraleganza universe. Driven by Piaget’s rebellious spirit and the Maison’s cherished sense of perpetual movement, it explores a choreographed interplay of light and shadow, solids and voids. Each piece conveys an energy in constant evolution, reflecting creativity in perpetual motion.Through Extraleganza, Piaget reaffirms its vision of High Jewelry: a living, expressive, and resolutely contemporary discipline, where High Jewelry watches and creations become the vehicles of a timeless artistic emotion.
