Tulle or Extremely Piaget
Buccellati · Piaget
Tulle
A half-millimetre sheet of gold pierced by hand into hundreds of minute hexagonal cells, so the metal reads like net lace.
Extremely Piaget
Gold chased and engraved until it reads like silk or bark, revived from the house's 1970s cuffs and sautoirs and lit with turquoise, opal and diamonds.
Mario Buccellati turned gold into lace in the 1920s, sawing hexagonal cells into a sheet half a millimetre thick until it looked like Venetian needlework. Piaget, some ninety years later, turned it into silk and bark by chasing and engraving, for the cuffs and bands of Extremely Piaget. Tulle opens the metal right through; Piaget only marks its surface. Buccellati's lattice still carries eternelle bands such as Tulle Ghirlanda, while Piaget's line has been withdrawn.
