In 1980, Bulgari also introduced a new way of decorating gems with colored silk satin to enrich his collection.
Jewelry from the 1990s had more subtle color combinations and patterns, necklaces became less structured, diamond tassels fanned out in place of 1980s collars, and gold remained the preferred material.
The collection is also inspired by natural or unconventional materials: the Naturalia series features fish or shells, while the Chandra series incorporates spherical white porcelain elements and is embossed.
The Bulgari design culminates in a recognisable combination of gold, depth, color, simplicity, stylized patterns, precious gems and other subtle elements.
Bulgari jewellery is fully wearable: less traditional, more precious and suitable for any occasion.
The concept was developed through modular jewellery, in which repetitive elements were used in recognisable and powerful designs, such as the PARENTESI series, inspired by lime crevices in the streets of Rome. Short necklaces and hard necklaces combine decorative elements such as diamond emeralds and sapphires.
