Description

In roman mythology, Venus was the goddess of love, beauty and fertility. She was also characterized as the goddess of victory in battle, motherhood, and gardens. Portrayals of Venus have been found in countless forms from sculptures to mosaics and even domestic murals and frescos. Blending Bvlgari’s finest High-Jewelry and watchmaking know-how, this one-of-a-kind rose gold timepiece set with sapphires and diamonds depicts the goddess Venus using the art of cameo and features the Tourbillon de lumière movement. This airily graceful movement is a work of art: the main plate and bridges are crafted in pink gold, the flanks are straight-grained, the rims and sinks are all chamfered and systematically polished. Circular graining and snailing set the finishing touches to this precious craftsmanship, contributing to a spectacular result.

Supplied by the brand to the GPHG for its entry.
