Chances are that the most treasured – and most worn – pieces of jewelry in your closet aren’t the trend-driven creations that you swap in and out of your looks on a season-by-season basis, but the timeless, forever jewels that you wear day in, day out until they become a part of you. Luxury jewels like those carefully handcrafted by Piaget. Founded in 1874 by Georges-Edouard Piaget in Geneva, the label has been fine-tuning and honing the art of goldsmithing and gem-setting in its ateliers for more than a century, firmly cementing its place as a go-to for understated, perpetually stylish jewelry. These are future heirlooms that you’ll want to wear now.

The label’s Possession collection ties in meticulous attention to detail and craft with a flair for forward-thinking creativity. First unveiled 25 years ago, it’s a sophisticated mix of classic elegance and contemporary flourishes; these are pieces with just enough standout details to feel of-the-moment, balanced with quiet, eternal style. Which is why influencer and Instagram star Caro Daur called upon them on her sun-fueled trip to Tulum, Mexico, proving that when you choose jewelry that transcends seasons, it becomes endlessly versatile – equally as perfect in the boardroom, on elegant evenings out or during your summer getaway.

The lynchpin of the collection is the Possession ring, an updated take on a piece first offered up by the label in 1990. It’s a true talisman, a timeless blend of precious metal and diamonds with a second band that rotates for you to turn as you wear it, unlocking your creativity and positive energy. Diamonds are woven throughout the rest of the collection, too, along with the more recent addition of beautifully colored stones, ranging from deep blue lapis lazuli to rich red carnelian. They’re just the thing to make the bracelets and bangles pop; elegantly simple worn one at a time, they really come into their own when stacked together. You’ll want to wear the delicate chain of the Possession bracelet with the clean lines of the open bangle, mixing the rainbow-array of stones and shades of gold and silver according to your own sartorial inclinations.

Or you could look to the pendants – from the long, standout necklaces to the shorter, more delicate chains, all ripe for layering in an eclectic blend of lengths and hues. And there are the watches to integrate into your look, too, as the ultimate investment pieces – ladylike, refined shapes peppered with diamonds.

Take your cue from Daur and wear yours with everything from statement-making swimwear and easy-breezy coverups to high-impact cocktail dresses and metallic separates. After that? Wear them with anything you have in your closet. There’s nothing they won’t elevate, now and forever.
