Kong takes readers on a visual journey through Piaget's Rose High Jewellery Presentation in Singapore, celebrating 30 years of the iconic Yves Piaget rose. This post beautifully captures the fusion of haute horlogerie and high jewelry, offering a glimpse into Piaget's creative universe and its enduring connection to its floral muse.
Last week was Piaget's media session
to present the Rose High Jewellery collection created to celebrate
thirty years of the Yves Piaget rose, at a boutique hotel located at one
of Singapore historical landmarks, Hotel Fort Canning.
The
late morning session started with a preview of the Rose Collection
consisting of jewellery and watches, followed by lunch and a short
appreciation course of painting roses with watercolour.
A recap of the afternoon .. Enjoy.
