The Kalpa Piccola Anniversaire features an engraved dial which reflects the segmentation of the hours. This subtle decoration is more reminiscent of a sheet of fabric than a dial – an invitation to slip away from the world of timekeeping and revel in elegant femininity. A diamond in a closed setting is applied by hand to the dial's surface, creating a sense of harmony. Serving as a focal point, it creates a play of light that radiates across the mother of pearl, accentuating the impression of depth.

The Kalpa Piccola Anniversaire is available with a dial in four different colours of mother of pearl, and each of these has a leather strap selected to complement it. The harmonious marriage of these original, electric hues underlines the femininity of the watch. A mandarin orange colour dial paired with a red leather strap; a luminous white dial with an off-white leather strap; a lilac dial whose reflections are set off by an enamel white leather strap; and finally, a Tahitian mother of pearl dial accompanied by an étoupe leather strap. A steel bracelet is also available with all of these colourways, adding a dash of modernity to the Kalpa Piccola Anniversaire.

The shape of the Kalpa Piccola Anniversaire case is the classic "tonneau", one of the first designs that Michel Parmigiani created for his brand. This form is based on the application of the golden ratio, a geometrical reference which provides a harmonious ratio of proportions. The case and its lugs, the angle of which has been carefully calculated to describe a perfect curve, sit ergonomically on the wrist. The sides of the steel case are set with Top Wesselton diamonds of a rare purity.
