Roman jewelry maison Bvlgari brings their iconic Tubogas collection to the Philippines with new iterations and designs that are made to be marveled at
Seldom does a name evoke timeless grandeur and inventive flair as Bvlgari. The luxury jewelry house continues to celebrate innovation, a passion for experimentation, and timeless design with the arrival of the Tubogas collection in the Philippines. Crafted using a bold technique developed by Bvlgari in the 1940s, the new designs are characterized by their signature enveloping lines and fluid shapes, and are an homage to the Maison’s pioneering essence of combining yellow-gold with the distinctive features of the Tubogas. But to make it truly novel, the new collection couples modern elegance with the brand’s glimmering history.

Stars and Gems that Shine
The Roman Maison celebrated the launch of its Tubogas jewelry line with a star-filled event that captured the essence of the brand’s daring spirit and visionary approach. Set in the Bvlgari Studio, the new Bvlgari Tubogas line was so spectacular that its debut drew the likes of multi-hyphenate artist Nadine Lustre, model and actress Chie Filomeno, and MEGA August cover star Kyline Alcantara; their looks easily complemented the Tubogas collection’s striking designs and timeless appeal.
Other stars present were actors Richard Juan and Derrick Monasterio, as well as model LA Aguinaldo. The Tubogas jewelry collection’s limitless sense of movement and tactile suppleness were celebrated throughout the evening.
The Tubogas, a marvel of craftsmanship and complex handiwork, embodies Bvlgari’s avant-garde approach to jewelry design. “From vibrant combinations with color contrasts, to triangular studs in gold and diamonds, the Bvlgari Tubogas collection presents a variety of offerings to approach younger generations,” Lucia Silvestri, Bvlgari’s Creative Director for Jewelry, declares.
The collection is a testament to the brand’s legacy of artistry and innovation. Inspired by the Roman Jeweler’s heritage, each creation is coupled with Bvlgari’s Italian flair for fusing functionality with artistic elegance. With its launch in the Philippines, Bvlgari introduces new intricate patterns and embedded radiant gemstones all framed by refined pavé diamonds and geometric hard stone inlays. Each piece is a blend of lightness, finesse, and sparkling brilliance in its yellow-gold, showcasing the traditional craftsmanship that defines Bvlgari’s Haute Joaillerie.
Whether the piece is wending its way up the arm or around the throat, the Tubogas’ seamless, flexible design wraps precious metal into flowing, coil-like shapes. Today, these new and distinctive designs are suitable for wearing alone or combined with other Bvlgari collections.
