Piaget’s Chinese New Year Collection is so Gift-Worthy

Swiss watch and jewellery designer Piaget has released its 2021 Chinese New Year Collection and every single item in the 16-piece collection in there is just begging to be wrapped up and gifted (even if it’s only to yourself).

The range of luxury jewellery and watches blends gold, diamonds, carnelians and plenty of ox imagery (2021 is the year of the ox) for an extra-special holiday collection.

The entire collection comprises six watches, three necklaces, one bracelet, four bangles, two rings and one pair of earrings. Check out the whole collection on the Piaget website.

Splash out on something special for a loved one or drop some heavy hints about one of our top picks from the release.

Altiplano Watch

For the man or woman in your life who likes to add a unique touch to their day-to-day style, this Altiplano watch will be a hit. Featuring a cloisonné enamel ox motif on the face, it's truly special for 2021. The white gold case is set with 78 brilliant-cut diamonds (for an approximate total of 0.7 ct) for a luxurious finish. Best of all? This watch is a limited edition of just 38 individually numbered timepieces.

Possession Pendant

This luxe pendant comes in three iterations, but this is our favourite. The centrepiece is a vibrant red carnelian sphere encircled in a ring of the same 18K rose gold as the chain. The carnelian spins freely, adding a sense of movement to the piece, and a brilliant-cut diamond is set within the rose gold chain as a nod to elegance alongside the playfulness.

Possession Bracelet

If your lucky recipient is more of a bracelet woman, we suggest the matching Possession bracelet (or, indeed, both). Also in 18K rose gold, the bracelet features the same vibrant carnelian bead playfully spinning within a rose gold ring. A tiny P charm at the end of the chain speaks to the levity of the piece, while a brilliant-cut diamond set within the chain adds an extra hint of luxury.

Possession Open Bangle

Shop

Like the necklace, the Possession open bangle comes in three different styles, but this slender and simple 2.5 mm piece is the one that takes our fancy.

As with the other Possession pieces, this is in an 18K rose gold, and each end is decorated with a carnelian cabochon encircled in a turning ring of more rose gold. This bangle is perfect as a gift because it’s imminently wearable with any style. And if this gift is well received, next year you can gift another Possession bangle with a different stone so they can get stack happy.

Piaget Rose Earrings

These romantic earrings are sweet and romantic, but eternally elegant. The stylised rosebuds, inspired by Yves Piaget rose, are made of 18K rose gold and entirely set with 78 brilliant-cut diamonds, creating the illusion of a real flower fresh with drops of dew.

These earrings make a perfect gift for a loved one—whether it’s a lover or best friend. After all, good things come in the tiniest of packages.

Possession Ring

If you want to spoil someone special, this Possession ring is a very luxe way to tell them you care. The 18K rose gold ring is set with 234 brilliant-cut diamonds (a grand total of around. 2.24 ct).

The four bands turn independently for a dazzling sensorial experience they’ll never tire of.
