Precious stones express the enchantment of a primordial beauty, and have always been among the distinctive emblems of Bvlgari jewellery, and one of the stylistic inheritances of the Mediterranean, its waters and coasts, its colours and myths, its inestimable natural and cultural wealth.

Unusual forms and cuts characterise Bvlgari’s high jewellery creations – precious and semi-precious gems, polished and irregular, mounted to form colliers, long chains, or multi-strand necklaces are exquisitely combined with more conventionally cut stones. Colour effects, nuances of light, realised by juxtaposing lively, brilliant cuts, colder stepped cuts and voluptuously soft cabochonne forms, have become emblematic features of Bvlgari’s art.
