Bulgari has always been the brand that best identifies with the development of the form of jewelry inspired by the snake. Her bracelets with sinuous coils of the reptile are over half a century one of the flagships of the Italian jeweler who is now part of the LVMH stable. The snake icon has thus grown to become a jewelery-watches. At Baselworld 2016, for example, Bulgari presented Seprenti Incantati: watches that are jewelry at 90% and the remaining 10% are also used to know the time. They are made with precious stones like red rubellite or diamonds, combined with pink or white gold. The strap can be a real leather or metal bracelet and gemstones. There’s also a limited edition: a black snake that is a massive bracelet studded with emeralds and diamonds. The snake head opens and reveals a hidden timepiece. Alternatively, the bracelets-watch can be enriched with enamel with turquoise or colored. Lavinia Andorno
