  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024
    Jewelry can do many things. Jewelry has long been a symbol of spiritual strength, wealth or power and, of course, a means of personal expression. Specific pieces of jewelry can enhance a person's appearance. For example, dangling earrings can help lengthen the look of the face, while choker necklaces can shorten the appearance of a long neck. The right jewelry can add texture and pops of color to outfits and draw attention to the wearer. In some cases, jewelry can have a symbolic meaning, the way an engagement ring is a reminder of a promise to marry, and a cross necklace is often a sign of religious faith. Shop a large collection of jewelry on 1stDibs.

    Piaget jewelry is the term for jewelry produced by the Swiss company Piaget. Founded in 1874 by Georges-Édouard Piaget, Piaget began as a watchmaker. In 1959, the Salon Piaget was opened in Geneva, leading to the establishment of workshops for goldsmithing and gem setting and the introduction of the company's first jewelry creations. Luxury jewelry designed by the company's artisans has often cleverly referenced Piaget’s watchmaking origins. An example is the Possession collection, featuring swinging pendants and turning rings that give a nod to the movement of Piaget watches. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Piaget jewelry.
