Piaget Possession Cylindre Tournant White Gold and Diamond Ring (1999)
This creation by Piaget embodies the architectural audacity of the late '90s, a time when the Swiss house explored massive volumes and structured lines. Stemming from the Possession spirit, this ring offers a rare, kinetic variation: a mobile central cylinder in 18k white gold, set with a brilliant-cut diamond weighing approximately 0.08 carat. This "roller" module rotates freely on its axis, inviting the wearer to touch it and perpetuating the collection's playful signature: a tactile luxury jewel that comes alive under the finger. The ring body, with its generous, rounded curves, offers a statuesque presence to the hand while ensuring silky comfort thanks to a solid interior. This piece is a privileged witness to the brand's age-old design, combining precision mechanical movement and timeless preciousness. This pre-owned jewel is a veritable wearable sculpture that leaves no one indifferent.
Preparation and inspection of this vintage Piaget ring
This collector's piece has benefited from a complete refurbishment in our workshops to restore its original brilliance. The solid white gold has been repolished to a mirror finish and then rhodium-plated, erasing the traces of time while preserving the essential deep engravings such as the signature, copyright date and serial number. Particular attention has been paid to the rotating cylinder mechanism: cleaned and lubricated where necessary, it pivots with perfect fluidity, without excessive play. The diamond's mass setting, embedded in the roller, has been inspected to guarantee the stone's safety during repeated movements. In size 50, this ring is technically and aesthetically ready to wear.
Responsible shopping: why buy this second-hand Piaget jewel
Buying this Piaget ring pre-owned is a savvy collector's choice. Unlike the classic Possession rings that are frequently found, this "Cylindre" declination is much more confidential and no longer appears in the catalog. It represents an opportunity to own a discontinued model with a strong, distinctive design, impossible to find in today's boutiques. It's the purchase of a "future vintage" with real heritage value, offered at an attractive price compared to the brand's current models for an equivalent weight of gold. Choosing second-hand also means prolonging the history of an exceptional creation with no additional impact on natural resources.
Verified and authenticated, contents delivered and condition
The authenticity of this ring is unmistakable thanks to the complete and clear engravings present inside the band. These include the PIAGET signature, the "750" title mark, the "© 1999" copyright year, the "50" size and the individual serial number. The 0.08 ct diamond has been appraised in accordance with the company's quality standards. The ring is delivered in a The Swiss Collector case.
