Bulgari, known as the quintessential Roman jeweller, was established by Sotirio Boulgaris, a Greek silversmith whose name was later Italianized to Bulgari. Born in Epirus, northern Greece in 1857, Sotirio hailed from a family with a rich tradition of silver craftsmanship. Throughout history, civilizations like the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians have revered and feared serpents, shaping myths and legends that endure to this day.The inaugural Bulgari Serpenti creation emerged in 1948: a bracelet-watch crafted in the Tubogas technique. In the 1960s, Bulgari elevated the sophistication of the Serpenti bracelet-watch, introducing colourfully enamelled scales to decorate the body. The Serpenti gained cult status in the 1960s, fuelled by Elizabeth Taylor's portrayal of Cleopatra and a photograph of her wearing her newly acquired Serpenti watch on set in Rome in 1962.Crafting these enamel pieces demanded rare technical skill. Each gold pentagon-shaped scale was meticulously enamelled, then fired in an oven before being assembled with tiny screws. Inside the serpent bodies, a gold spring ensures flexible sizing, while precious gems accentuate the eyes and sometimes the watch bezels, discreetly hidden within the mouth. Bulgari collaborated with esteemed watchmakers like Jaeger-LeCoultre and Vacheron Constantin to craft the movements for these enamel snake jewels.These rare designs, numbering fewer than one hundred, primarily comprised bracelets, with only a handful of belts ever produced. Despite their scarcity, the enamel snakes swiftly became emblematic of Bulgari's artistry. The seamless blend of history and contemporary style inherent in the Serpenti collection epitomizes Bulgari's aesthetic, solidifying its status as a revered name in the world of luxury jewellery.

A RARE AND COLLECTIBLE 'SERPENTI' BRACELET WATCH, BY BULGARI, CIRCA 1960 Designed as a snake, the scales applied with aubergine brown, black and white enamel, the eyes highlighted with pear-shaped diamonds, the mouth opening to reveal a circular-cut dial with baton for indicators, the watch with 17-jewels, Cal-1426/PB, manual wind movement, case no. 432835, dial and movement signed Vacheron Constantin, bracelet signed Bvlgari and mounted in 18K gold Accompanied by a certificate from Amanda Triossi, author and specialist on Bulgari, former curator of the Bulgari Heritage Collection and curator of all the first major Bulgari retrospective exhibitions between 2009 to 2013, stating that this bracelet was manufactured for and retailed by Bulgari in the 1960s and that the Vacheron Constantin watch is original to the bracelet. Length approximately 56cm, weighing 196g. Dated April 11th 2024, in Rome. Symbolizing wisdom, eternity, and strength, the snake is closely connected to earth energies and represents life force. Reminiscent of unconscious drives and primal instincts, the snake figure lies at the core of the relationship between mankind and the transcendental. As such, snake motifs have been used by goldsmiths and jewellers in cultures across the globe since the dawn of time. A visit to the ancient Egyptian, Chinese, Greek, and Roman galleries in many museums will provide ample evidence of this. In this endless continuum of the goldsmith's endeavour, the colourful enamel Serpenti bracelet-watches that the Italian jewellery house Bulgari made in the 1960s mark a pivotal moment in the history of jewellery as an applied art, and in the history of the Bulgari brand itself. Snake-themed jewels had been a part of Bulgari's design DNA before that, but the Serpenti bracelet watches that the Italian jeweller previously made since the 1940s had mimicked nature primarily using the house's signature gold tubogas. As time progressed, Serpenti jewels evolved in their design language, becoming increasingly alive through the use of more realistic geometries and volumes, vivid enamel colours, and animated expressions accented by precious gemstones. It is no surprise that these pieces have been fetching exceptionally high prices at international auctions in recent years, often bought back by the manufacturer to be restored with love and attention before taking their place of pride in their heritage collections exhibited around the world. Bulgari's inspired rebirth of their snake jewels in the 1960s soon caught the attention of the fashion industry. Vogue's famed editor-in-chief Diana Vreeland was a fan of Bulgari snakes and owned a one-of-a-kind gold, white, and pink enamel snake belt, which she famously wore as a necklace, twisting it twice around her throat. In a 1968 memo to her editors, Vreeland wrote, Don't forget the Serpent… the serpent should be on every finger and all wrists and all everywhere… The serpent is the motif of the hour in jewellery… We cannot see enough of them…. Under her leadership, Vogue featured the colourful enameled Bulgari Serpenti jewels on countless occasions throughout the 1960s and 70s, with articles and iconic photographs that have since made history in the fashion world. The debut on Vogue for these exciting new jewelled marvels came in the August 15, 1968, issue of the magazine. In an article titled From Italy Ready-Get-Go Collections, a glamorous photograph by Henry Clarke depicts a young Italian royal, the Principessa di Genzano, sensually holding a snake belt as though it were alive, with a second snake bracelet seductively wrapped around her bare forearm. Italian culture was a prominent American import in the 1960s. Sexy Italian sports cars were every man's dream, as were gorgeous actresses like Sophia Loren and Claudia Cardinale. Master movie directors like Federico Fellini, Sergio Leone, and Franco Zeffirelli were making their indelible mark on the narrative and visual aesthetic of the seventh art. In fashion, designers such as Valentino, Pucci, and Missoni set new standards for elegance and style. Within this cultural framework, breath-taking creations by Bulgari were rapidly establishing the Rome-based brand as a global trendsetter. Its bold wearable designs, love for juxtaposed colours and materials, and state-of-the-art goldsmith techniques were steadily winning the hearts of jewellery lovers worldwide, including that of Elizabeth Taylor, who had been photographed wearing an emerald eyed Serpenti bracelet on the set of the 1963 Hollywood blockbuster Cleopatra. So, it is not surprising that Vogue repeated the same Bulgari snake style the following month in the September 15, 1968, issue of the magazine. A spread titled From Italy: The Absolute Jewels featured the Italian jewellery house exclusively. Milanese photographer Gian Paolo Barbieri was entrusted to shoot Italian model Benedetta Barzini, covered in stunning enamel and gold snake bracelets and belts. On this occasion, enamel Serpenti jewels adorned the arm, the neck, and the hair of the model. A witty caption to the photograph read: …the bracelet keeps track of time in its head, a clever wordplay referencing the petite watch hidden inside the jaws of the reptile. The Serpenti bracelet watch offered in this sale is made particularly rare by the fact that the watch dial and movement are by Vacheron & Constantin. Other more common watch suppliers to Bulgari at the time were Movado and Jaeger-LeCoultre. Enamel snakes became Bulgari and fashion icons, not least because of their substantial coverage in 1960s glossy magazines, as well as on a famous series of Bulgari advertisements in the 1970s. In the words of Nicola Bulgari himself, “To me, the enamel snakes exemplify the La Dolce Vita era in Rome.” Notwithstanding their ubiquity, fewer than one hundred of these rare designs were actually produced, less if we consider that a handful of them were made as belts. Finally, no feature on vintage Bulgari Serpenti jewels would be complete without a reference to the Valenza-based jewellery manufacturing company Carlo Illario e Filli. Founded in 1920 by brothers Carlo, Vincenzo, and Luigi Illario, the three brothers established a workshop that manufactured jewellery of exceptional quality. Their skilled craftsmanship soon caught the attention of well-established retailers, and Illario began manufacturing for fellow Italian jewellery houses Fasano, Faraone, and Bulgari. The company's partnership with Bulgari was particularly longstanding, running from the 1950s through until the 1970s. Illario was entrusted to create Bulgari's now iconic Serpenti watch bracelet. The iridescence and depth of hue in the beautiful colours of vintage Serpenti jewels were obtained using vitreous hot enamel techniques. An internal white gold double spring conferred the flexible memory typical of these miniature works of art and was kept in place by ingenious threaded gold pins.
