Bulgari has declared the serpent its 'spirit animal' and this motif has become perhaps the most iconic look of all for a firm that has many, thanks to their strong and confident point-of-view. The serpent is a symbol of knowledge and eternity, and the motif has found its way into jewellery design since the Hellenistic period. Bulgari, always conscious of their ancient cultural heritage, drew from this tradition to create the first 'Serpenti' bracelet-watches during the late 1940s. Since then, the 'Serpenti' theme has crossed into all categories of jewels by Bulgari, and in a variety of creative iterations, including white, yellow and pink gold, steel, colored gemstones, diamonds and enamel. This bracelet-watch, while a contemporary example, is of the classic two-row wrap design in a timeless combination of white gold and diamond.
