Description

SERPENTI INCANTATI, THE ENTRANCING CHARM OF HAUTE JOAILLERIE The new spectacularly flamboyant Serpenti Incantati watch highlights the iconic serpent theme in an astonishing way. Bulgari has long since tamed this symbolic and fascinating creature. Incantati means enchanting" in Italian and Bulgari charms the snake in a whole new way through this spellbinding horological interpretation of Haute Joaillerie. For the very first time, the reptile coils around the watch dial. Each part of the head and body of the snake has been entirely rethought and redesigned with extremely contemporary lines. They are soft and stylized at the same time. This precious and refined watch affirms the high degree of technical mastery cultivated by the artisans in Bulgari High Jewellery ateliers. 251 precious diamonds are set on the case with an additional 116 gemstones on the dial in a snow-setting, totaling up to 8.93 carats. The snake’s tail coils around the wrist becoming the watch’s bracelet. The jeweled geometric elements are extremely flexible, testifying once again that motion and flexibility on wearing are unmistakable features of Bulgari jewellery and jewellery watch creations.
