  • 圖錄文章

    Even though Bvlgari created the « Serpenti » bracelet in the 1940s, it did not become the choice of the glitterati until the 1960s when Elisabeth Taylor was spotted on screen wearing her Bvlgari « Serpenti » in the 1963 film Cleopatra, becoming overnight an immense success and a glamorous symbol of the “dolce vita”.

    A marvel of finesse and artistic liberty, the Serpenti consists of a wrap around gold bracelet enhanced with green, white and black enamel representing the snake’s skin. The eyes are two round cut diamonds. The mouth of the snake ingeniously opens to reveal the watch’s dial.

    Attributed to Bvlgari as set out in a certificate from Amanda Triossi, MA FGA, author and specialist on Bvlgari, curator of all major Bvlgari Retrospective Exhibitions from 2009 to 2013, the present “Serpenti” is not only a wonderful and delicate mix of jewelry and watchmaking but a wonderful conversation piece.
