Observe the master artisans of Piaget showcasing their craftsmanship in an intimate studio space. Since 1960, Piaget has developed a unique mastery of gold engraving which has become one of the maison’s trademarks. The engraver cuts the gold by hand, making grooves of varying depths and thicknesses. In this way, he creates a decorative pattern, surface effects and light reflections, making each ornamental engraving unique.
