Bulgari began the year with a new line of pieces that honor the Roman art of living. Done with such vibrancy and color that’s merged with utmost extravagance, and we get to see this come together once again with their line of timepieces unveiled at the LVMH watch week.
Three lines were introduced during the said event, and each were so distinct as they represent an integral part of the Maison’s heritage—culture, codes, and lifestyle.
Divas’ Dream
Part of the Divas’ Dream watches, one piece that is very much inspired by their culture, is the Mosaica that comes in two different shades, blue and pink, yet both are still connected with one historical background. Adorned on the dial are patterns of the mosaics reminiscent of the ones in the Baths of Caracalla. Seemingly simple, the sapphires on the dial create a subtle gradient of dark to light hues. As for the rims, a beautiful sunset hue decorates the pink watch, while the blue reminds us of the sparkling ocean under the sun.
Allegra
As for the Allegra watches, Bulgari wanted to capture the essence of joy in their cocktail watch. It gives a more playful tone through their mix of precious stones in different cuts and shades. They are then tied neatly as dainty diamonds surround the dial.
Serpenti
A sleek exterior was chosen for the Serpenti Seduttori watches. The head of a snake takes form in the dial, which was coated in a deep black shade, making it intimidatingly elegant. The scales decorate the wristband of the watch, making it seem like its second skin to the wearer.
Serpenti Tubogas Infinity
And lastly, the Serpenti Tubogas Infinity is a tribute to the Maison’s legendary snake and timepiece that deserves the recognition for its one-of-a-kind construction.
For the first time ever in Bulgari history, the stones are set on the bracelet. Giving credit to the new technique, solid rings done in different construction were set in place to replicate the shape of the bracelet. It took Bulgari two years to perfect the technique they used for the Serpenti Tubogas, which is why it is truly unique as they carry the dedication of craftsmanship of the Maison.
The rose gold slithers up to the wrist gracefully as the vial takes the shape of a snakehead. The rims are decorated with gleaming diamonds, making a gorgeous shine as the time ticks by.
Iconic and daring, Bulgari continues to create high jewelery that captures the wonder our world has. With elegance and sophistication capturing the vividness of precious stones through intricate craftsmanship, we can say that time is truly a jewel in the world of luxury.
