Le Petit Cactus or Piaget Sunlight
Mellerio · Piaget
Le Petit Cactus
The flower of the vanilla cactus, which opens for one night a year, made as a small burst of rose gold stamens around a single stone.
Piaget Sunlight
The sun as a disc of gold rays, each segment engraved, brushed or polished, around a halo of diamonds.
Night and day. The vanilla cactus behind Le Petit Cactus opens for one night a year; Laure-Isabelle Mellerio, fourteenth generation of her family, made its pistil and stamens into a small rose-gold burst in 2019, with a white, brown or yellow diamond or a sapphire at the centre. Piaget Sunlight takes the midday sun, rays of engraved, brushed and polished gold around a diamond halo, a theme born in high jewelry in 2017. Both are rose gold and sized for daily wear.
