Few things capture the imagination like The Garden of Eden, a fantastical place of idyllic perfection and unspoiled innocence, filled with lush flora and fauna. And it is with all these in mind that Bulgari introduces its latest high jewellery and high-end watches collection: A world of marvellous mystery, boundless creativity, and unrivalled beauty, a world revealed by the Italian maison through their most ambitious collection yet — Eden, The Garden of Wonders.
Consisting of over 140 extraordinary masterpieces, the collection marks a first for Bulgari — by showcasing no fewer than 30 creations dedicated to the emerald. Those in the know would be aware that this is a tribute that has been a long time in coming because of the maison’s long-standing affinity with the emerald, one that has lasted for over 60 years. This precious gem has always captured the imagination of the jeweller’s artisans and now, in this stunning collection, its striking hue is showcased in unique forms that take highend jewellery to a whole new level.
ETERNAL SPLENDOUR
The Emerald Glory is a magnificent piece that evokes the grandeur of royalty and the splendour of a time long past, so it is not surprising to find out that more than 3000 hours of handwork went into its creation. With 11 pear-shaped Colombian emeralds surrounded by a cascade of 73 diamonds totalling over 220 carats, this intricately wrought necklace covers the base of the neck like a collar would. In fact, despite the impressive number of gems it features, the necklace possesses a fluid texture that brings to mind a lace ruff worn by European nobility in the past. The piece is highly transformable — it can be worn as a necklace, a choker or a tiara.
