A fusion of lapis lazuli and jade alternate across the bracelet, a supernova of 18k gold, marked with the stamp of baroque patterns. While Piaget was known for pushing the boundaries of jewelry and watchmaking, this celestial cuff goes beyond, forming a sculptural shape that encompasses the wrist with precision. Just as the 1970s marked a period of bold exploration—culminating in the moon landing and the burgeoning fascination with the cosmos—the Piaget manchette represents an exploration of design into new territories beyond Earth. The geometric lines and sculptural forms of the bracelet mirror the sleek, futuristic aesthetics of space technology, with its angular shapes and refined materials, reminiscent of an unknown spacecraft.
