A diamond for yourself? A ring to show some self-love? Why not? Maybe you’ve been working hard. Maybe you want to celebrate an achievement. Maybe you feel it’s time to spoil yourself because you know (or feel) that you won’t be receiving any jewellery any time soon. As a married woman myself with a beautiful engagement ring (ahem, I dropped a lot of hints), I often dream about the next piece of jewellery that I will buy for myself.
Recently, the Serpenti Viper caught my eye — which surprised me because the traditional Serpenti icon from Bulgari is not new to me. I’ve seen it many times, in multi-coil bracelet watches or open bracelets, but the Serpenti Viper just hits different. It has undergone a minimalist, refined tweak so that the motif is generally sleeker and slimmer, with head scales that are now more graphic than ornamental. The ring in white gold with diamonds is a fine alternative to an otherwise boring eternity band.
