BULGARI

The Italian house of Bulgari is renowned for its innovative and timeless designs. It has been using cabochon-cut gemstones in many of its creations since the 1960s.
Juxtaposed with diamonds, the smooth domes of coloured stones give Bulgari’s creations a distinctive aesthetic. The hexagonal cross-section sometimes mimics the scales of a snake, particularly in the Serpenti collection, which can undulate like the reptiles they represent; at other times, it resembles the cells of a honeycomb, lending the jewellery great flexibility.
