龍鳳呈祥

伯爵在2012年農曆新年之際,推出了一系列卓絕獨特的時計作品迎接龍年的到來。如今隨著十二生肖週而復始,伯爵再度發揮其果敢創新的精神、巧奪天工的技藝和驚奇動人的美感,打造出專為農曆春節而構思洋溢著非凡魅力與强大能量的龍鳳呈祥系列。 

權勢、強盛與繁榮

的象徵

作為權勢、強盛與繁榮的象徵,祥龍是最著名和最具代表性的十二生肖之一。因此伯爵為其2012年農曆新年紀念系列創作出24款精湛時計,其中包括四款複雜功能高級鐘錶、八款Métiers d’Art高級工藝收藏腕錶和兩款高級珠寶神秘腕錶。隨之而來的是每年獨立特別設計、製作精美的獨創腕錶,藉以向當年的代表生肖致意。

伯爵如今推出令人嘆為觀止的全新膠囊系列,為另一個12年週期揭開序幕,再次敬獻祥龍瑞鳳——象徵著中華文化中的陽剛與陰柔、強盛與力量、希望與重生,以及極致祥和。十款風采動魄的非凡腕錶和高級珠寶作品從而誕生,其中包括一對絢麗奢華且創新獨特的特別定制高級珠寶手鐲腕錶:每件創作都洋溢著情感與活力,既讚頌著卓絕的高級工藝和製錶技術,亦歡快地傳達了伯爵的設計美學。

超凡工藝

自2006年起,琺瑯大師Anita Porchet與伯爵聯手合作,不僅傾力展現她在微繪琺瑯工藝上舉世無雙的專業技藝,更體現其無與倫比的耐心與熱情。Porchet一直是伯爵每年創作農曆新年腕錶的幕後功臣,如今更為兩款38毫米Altiplano Zodiac腕錶注入絕然的現代感與昂揚激情。這兩個錶款各別限量發行38枚,其中一款的錶盤上盤踞著高貴雅致的藍色祥龍,另一款則以紅、粉、橙三色調勾勒出翱翔雲間的鳳凰;經過精雕細琢的白色和灰色珍珠母貝巧妙配搭,構成了雲彩飄搖的動感天空。Porchet透過精湛的掐絲琺瑯工藝以及其標誌性的光影與透明交曡效果,讓整個畫面栩栩如生。此外,在金質鐫刻的映襯下,祥龍的鱗片和鳳凰的羽毛顯得更具深度與立體感。腕錶的裝飾工藝極為複雜細緻,其專精製作的成果著實令人驚嘆與肅然起敬,並使得這些極具象徵性的東方經典圖案得以超越文化,喚起更為普世且深遠的感受。這個大膽且多彩的新穎組合為該系列作品的全新風格奠定了基調。

四款嶄新的高級珠寶腕錶延續此主題而創造。直徑41毫米的Altiplano高級珠寶祥龍腕錶採用Porchet大師高雅細緻的金箔琺瑯工藝來裝飾錶盤,襯托著一條細節精緻有力的金質鐫刻祥龍,彼此相得益彰。該條祥龍具有紅色漆面眼睛,爪中緊握一顆神秘的黑蛋白石火球,整體設計在放射太陽雕紋中散發出迷人光輝,令人嘆為觀止。此款時計的錶耳和錶圈皆鑲飾鑽石,搭載伯爵自製的歷史性830P超薄手動上鏈機械機芯,且僅限量發行八枚(帶有編號)。

祥龍圖案也出現在嶄新的伯爵Emperador腕錶上,搭配著令人震撼的飛行陀飛輪結構。這條金質鐫刻的祥龍具有大膽迷人的風采,在錶盤、錶殼及腕錶的側面起伏翻騰。雪花鑲嵌藍寶石和鑽石皆經過精心的漸變排位設計,幻化為星辰閃爍的夜空。這款46.5毫米的腕錶述説著伯爵的高級鐘錶與綺麗珠寶之間的動人邂逅,是真正蘊含著驚奇之美的作品。

兩款瑞鳳高級珠寶腕錶皆是獨具女性韻味和珍貴氣息的演繹作品。由馬眼形切割鑽石和圓形切割鑽石鑲嵌而成的璀璨羽翼以不對稱的方式裝點著32毫米腕錶,而彷彿浮游於錶盤上的金質鐫刻飾件則為設計增添鮮明活力。腕錶所搭配的金質錶鏈上飾有「宮廷式裝飾」(Decor Palace),此乃伯爵最聞名遐邇的金質鐫刻技藝之一。第二個錶款以白金製成且點綴著紅寶石;每個錶款皆僅限量推出八枚。

魅力逼人

的極品

伯爵首次在獨立系列中納入了高級珠寶作品:一款祥龍胸針和一款祥龍指環,以及兩款瑞鳳耳掛。

這款矚目的圖章指環以一顆4.02克拉的枕形切割莫三比克紅寶石為主石,並鑲嵌尺寸漸變的錳鋁榴石和尖晶石,此外還飾有長方形切割鑽石和金質鐫刻飾件。另一件獨創的珠寶作品是一款光輝璀璨的祥龍胸針,飾有三顆令人驚艷的主石——枕形切割的黃色藍寶石、錳鋁榴石和尖晶石;此外,一些圓形切割的紅寶石、錳鋁榴石和尖晶石則使這款珠寶更具活潑氣息。伯爵花了8個多月的時間才找到了一組色彩相稱的完美主石。

耳掛如今已成為伯爵的標誌性產品,完美體現品牌的設計特色,如不對稱、華麗和動人心弦的呈現。這些耳掛與兩款瑞鳳珠寶腕錶相呼應,同樣採用鑽石搭配玫瑰金或者紅寶石搭配白金的材質組合;同時,馬眼形、梨形和圓形切割鑽石也與精緻細膩的金質鐫刻飾件共譜舞曲。這些寶石盡展無窮動感、量感十足且流光溢彩。

兩款高級訂製

珠寶手鐲腕錶

為您帶來

更强烈的震撼

最後的兩款高級訂製珠寶手鐲腕錶為您帶來更一步的震撼。極具大膽氣魄的祥龍手鐲錶鏈以縞瑪瑙為邊飾,搭配長方形、馬眼形和圓形切割鑽石,展現出獨特質感,祥龍盤旋於錶盤和華麗的凸圓面黑蛋白石之間。與此同時,飾有精美凸圓面紅碧璽的金質瑞鳳手鐲錶鏈上則鑲嵌著圓形和馬眼形切割的粉色紅寶石、粉紅藍寶石和鈷尖晶石。絢麗奢華的粉紅寶石羽翼散發出迷人氣息且暗藏玄機,經拆卸之後,可轉化為動人心弦的珠寶飾品。這兩款手鐲都可以提供獨樹一幟的演繹,根據顧客的願望與要求來訂製飾面與寶石。

此作品系列綻放著活力、情感和一絲玩味的不羈精神,且宣告著十二生肖新週期的開展;它同時也體現出伯爵在卓絕製錶和高級珠寶領域的精湛設計美學,藉以不斷超越既有的創意思維和果敢作為。





DRAGON & PHOENIX

In 2012 on the occasion of the Lunar New Year, Piaget welcomed the Year of the Dragon with a special capsule collection of exceptional timepieces. As the 12-year cycle begins again, that spirit of daring creativity, remarkable sophistication and unexpected beauty is awakened once more for a special Lunar New Year capsule collection dedicated to the Dragon & Phoenix magnetic energies.

A symbol of power, strength and prosperity, the Dragon is among the most celebrated and emblematic of Chinese zodiacs symbols. No wonder that for Piaget’s 2012 commemorative Lunar New Year collection, the Maison created 24 references that included four high watchmaking complications, eight Metiers d’Art timepieces and two High Jewellery secret watches. These were followed up each year with individual, beautifully crafted watches - mostly in minimal tones - which paid homage to the year’s zodiac sign.

Piaget now marks the start of another 12-year cycle with a spectacular new capsule collection which, again, pays tribute to the Dragon and Phoenix – that coupled Chinese symbol of masculinity and femininity, strength and power, hope and rebirth, of ultimate harmony and balance. Featuring 10 daring designs of exceptional watches and High Jewellery pieces – topped off with a pair of extravagant and very exclusive, made-to-order High Jewellery cuff watches – each creation brims with emotion and exuberance, joyfully channelling the codes of the Maison while celebrating unparalleled Metiers d’Art and watchmaking savoir-faire.

Exceptional crafts

Since 2006, the enamelling master Anita Porchet has collaborated with Piaget, lending to the Maison her unrivalled expertise in creating touches of miniature enamel– not to mention her patience and passion. Porchet has been behind Piaget’s annual Lunar New Year watches, and now two 38mm Altiplano Zodiac references take on a particularly modern and ebullient expression. Limited to 38 pieces each, the dials depict either an elegant blue Dragon or a mix of red, pink and orange hues for the Phoenix soaring among the clouds, the sky crafted from a subtle mix of carved white and grey mother of pearl. Porchet’s masterful cloisonné enamelling and her signature play of light, shadow and transparency truly bring the scene to life. Gold engraving further enhances the Dragon’s scales and the Phoenix’s plumage, adding depth and dimensionality. Complex in their craftsmanship and sophistication, the watches’ expert execution evokes a sense of wonder and awe, offering a kind of universal appeal that extends beyond these classic motifs as Chinese symbols. A bold and colourful new set which sets the tone with a new style.

Four new High jewellery watches continue the theme. A 41mm Altiplano High Jewellery Dragon watch sees Porchet’s fine paillonné enamelwork complement a gold-engraved Dragon that’s rendered in exquisite, powerful detail. Featuring red lacquered eyes and clasping a mystical black opal fireball in its claws, the whole design radiates from a stunning sunburst engraving. Trimmed with diamonds on the lugs and bezel, the watch is powered by Piaget’s historic 830P Manufacture ultra-thin, hand wound mechanical movement and is limited to eight numbered editions.

The Dragon motif also swirls onto a new Piaget Emperador watch, featuring a flying tourbillon in a stunning construction. This gold-engraved Dragon is especially alluring and audacious, sensually winding its way around the case and onto the sides of the watch, onto the dial. Snow-set sapphires and diamonds, each painstakingly set in graduation, evoke a twinkling, starry blue sky. The 46.5mm watch epitomises Piaget as a flamboyant encounter between high watchmaking and inspired jewellery – and is truly a work of unexpected beauty.

Two Phoenix High Jewellery watches bring forth a feminine, precious interpretation. A splendid plumage of marquise and brilliant-cut diamonds dress a 32mm watch in an asymmetrical motif, as gold engraving details flow onto the dial, galvanising the design. This is paired with a gold bracelet in the Decor Palace finish, among Piaget’s most celebrated gold engraving techniques. A second model comes in a ruby and white gold mix, and each model is limited to eight pieces.

Objects of desire

For the first time, the capsule collection includes high jewellery creations: a unique Dragon brooch and ring, and two Phoenix earcuffs. A 4.02ct cushion-cut Mozambique ruby is the centrepiece of the bold signet ring, which is complemented by spessartite and spinels set in graduation, further flecked with baguette-cut diamonds and gold engraving. Another one-off gem is a dazzling and colourful Dragon brooch that encircles three incredible stones – yellow sapphire, spessartite and spinel, all cushion cuts – as a smattering of round-cut rubies, spessarites and spinels invigorate the jewel. It took more than 8 months for the Maison to find the perfect pair of central stones with matching hues.

Earcuffs are now a Piaget signature – oozing the Maison’s touchpoints such as asymmetry, flamboyance and elevated expression. Echoing the two Phoenix jewellery watches, the earcuffs, come in either a diamond and rose gold mix, or ruby and white gold, as marquise, pear and brilliant-cut diamonds dance among exquisite gold engraving. These are gems full of movement, accentuated volumes and utter radiance.

A final touch of frisson comes courtesy of two made-to-order High Jewellery cuff watches. An audacious Dragon cuff – fringed in onyx with added texture from a blend of baguette, marquise and brilliant-cut diamonds – sees the creature embracing a watch dial and a magnificent black opal cabochon. Meanwhile an engraved gold Phoenix cuff set with an exquisite rubellite cabochon is draped with pink rubies, pink sapphires and cobalt spinels in round and marquise cuts. An extravagant pink feather adds a final, unexpected touch, and is detachable to create a stunning, transformable jewel. Both cuffs are unique in each interpretation, with clients able to customise their desired finishes and stones.

Bursting with energy, emotion and a hint of playful irreverence, the capsule collection heralds an exciting new cycle of the Chinese zodiac – and showcases a unique watchmaking and high jewellery Maison truly mastering its house codes to push the boundaries of creativity and daring.
