THE HYPNOTIC
EYES OF SERPENTI

in a gaze may change the very course of
history; every love story begins with that
very first look.
The new Serpenti collection is as
multifaceted as it is innovative. The new
designs focus on the penetrating stare of the
snake. At the centrepiece of Serpenti design is
the precious snakehead, inspired by the
1960s–70s Bulgari serpents that heralded
this dangerous yet hypnotically beautiful
element of the animal.

Snakes are known for their
ability to seduce and hypnotise
their prey. BVLGARI, the
master of the aesthetic, is
renowned for harnessing
this same power.

The motif’s core design element has been
able to lend a heralded versatility to its
artisanal patterns. Imitating the natural
beauty of a snake’s scales, the spellbinding
effect is created from precious jewels and
metals, and interpreted in countless
ways: repeating in diamonds for a full
pavé bracelet; carved into the scales of
a pink-gold ring; in a net design to lightly
encircle pavé diamonds around the wrist;
or as the precious angular markings atop
the snakehead.
Bulgari introduces the new Serpenti
jewellery collection, with a new design that
encapsulates the bold nature of the snake.
Entirely reimagined into striking new shapes,
Serpenti focuses on the power of the eyes
in 2016.
Shining in multifaceted expressions of
seduction, the precious rings, bracelets
and necklaces glorify the ‘hearts of the
head’ in jewelled designs that sparkle
with desire. Indeed, the gemstone
is uncannily similar to the eye: every
jewel is as individual as every iris. Such
inimitability has a captivating appeal,
as the hypnotic, almond-shaped eyes of a
snake – or those of a beautiful woman –
can hold a power as incomparable as it
is unconquerable. The temptation contained

The Serpenti collection has become one
of the most beloved and alluring to ever
strike the world of jewellery.
