The kinetic elegance of this Piaget ring
Launched in the early 1990s by the Geneva-based manufacture, the Possession collection introduced an unprecedented mechanical dimension to high jewellery with its principle of a ring rotating freely on its axis. This second-hand ring incorporates this concept with a rotating upper section set with 7 brilliant-cut diamonds. These gems, of great clarity and weighing around 0.31 carat in total, are housed in an asymmetrical setting. Forged from an 18-carat white gold alloy, the piece offers a sharp contrast between the brilliance of the stones and the density of the polished metal.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The design is based on a thick, domed setting providing reassuring volume to the finger. The main ring serves as a guide rail for the overlapping upper section. This houses the diamonds thanks to an absolutely precise rail setting. The stones are thus firmly held between two solid gold walls, guaranteeing their protection against everyday shocks. The absence of claws means that the surface is smooth to the touch, while the structure's full polish captures and reflects light to perfection.
Why this second-hand ring
Acquiring this second-hand jewellery signature represents a wise choice in the face of today's market. Examples from this period feature a gold density well above contemporary standards. Reproducing this rotation mechanism today with such fluidity requires expertise, and the cost of labour makes it a particularly worthwhile investment. Opting for this piece combines a historically strong design with uncompromising craftsmanship.
