Bulgari Jewelry Watches
Italian
Greek silversmith Sotirios Voulgaris arrived in Rome in 1881 and set up his own shop there in 1884, calling it Bulgari, an Italianization of his last name (in the brand's logo, it's styled BVLGARI, using the classical Latin alphabet in a nod to ancient Roman culture). In 1905, he opened the company’s flagship boutique on Rome’s Via dei Condotti. Since then, Bulgari has looked to Rome as a source of reference for its fanciful and decidedly romantic designs for necklaces, bracelets, earrings and other accessories.
Although the iconic jewelry house found success with its silverwork and Art Deco designs, popular through the 1920s, Bulgari’s signature style — bold, often using yellow gold embellished with big colorful gemstones — began to emerge when Sotirios’s sons inherited the business, in 1932.
The brand truly hit its stride in the dolce vita era of the 1950s and ’60s, when the founder’s grandsons Paolo, Gianni and Nicola Bulgari decisively departed from demure traditional styles to develop the house’s exuberant multi-gem looks, attracting celebrity collectors like Elizabeth Taylor.
In the 1940s, Bulgari debuted perhaps its most famous design, the Serpenti bracelet watch. The piece’s snakelike coils were made possible by the tubogas jewelry technique, which links a flexible series of thin horizontal bands. Both the sleek, modern tubogas construction and the sinuous snake motif continue to be synonymous with the Bulgari brand.
On 1stDibs, the collection of vintage Bulgari jewelry includes rings, pendant necklaces, watches and other accessories.

Questions About Bulgari Jewelry
Watches
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 30, 2024Yes, most Bvlgari pieces have serial numbers. When using a serial number to identify an authentic Bvlgari piece, look for crisp, clear numbers that are either engraved or embossed, depending on the item. Additionally, the iconic jewelry house uses two spellings for its name — Bulgari and Bvlgari. The latter spelling, used for its hallmark, employs the classical Latin alphabet in a nod to ancient Roman culture. So the brand’s name as it appears on its accessories will see the “U” replaced with a “V” (counterfeiters are likely to overlook this detail). A jeweler or other industry professional can help you authenticate your Bvlgari jewelry.
Although Bvlgari found success with its silverwork and Art Deco designs, popular through the 1920s, the house’s signature style, which is bold, often incorporating yellow gold embellished with big colorful gemstones, began to emerge when founder Sotirios Voulgaris’s sons inherited the business, in 1932.
Find Bvlgari jewelry for sale on 1stDibs. - Why is it called Bulgari?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024Why it is called Bulgari relates to founder Sotirios Voulgaris's source of inspiration: Rome. The Greek silversmith arrived in the Italian capital in 1881 and set up his shop there in 1884, calling it Bulgari, an Italianization of his last name. In the brand's logo it's styled BVLGARI, using the classical Latin alphabet in a nod to ancient Roman culture. Since then, Bulgari has looked to Rome as a source of reference for its fanciful and decidedly romantic necklaces, bracelets, earrings and other accessories. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Bulgari jewelry and watches.
- Is Bulgari handmade?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether or not Bulgari is handmade depends on the piece. Typically, skilled artisans working in the company's own factories located in Italy handcraft the Italian luxury brand's jewelry, bags and small leather accessories. Most of the manufacturing for Bulgari sunglasses is done by machine. Shop a range of Bulgari on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022There are a few ways to determine whether or not your Bulgari jewelry is real. First, Bulgari uses the highest quality material for all of its pieces, such as 18-karat gold, platinum, silver or steel with meticulously cut gemstones and diamonds. Second, all pieces should be stamped with “made in Italy” and a “BVLGARI” text. Note that Bulgari uses the classic Latin alphabet, which is why a “V” is used in place of a “U.” Browse a large collection of authentic Bulgari jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Gèrald Genta designed the Bulgari Diagono. When the timepiece debuted in 1988, it was the first sports watch the Italian luxury fashion house and watchmaker had ever produced. As a designer and engineer, Genta transformed both the overall appearance of timepieces and how they function. He’s also one of the few watchmakers whose creations for brands other than his own earned him worldwide acclaim. Shop a collection of Bulgari Diagono watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023What the Bulgari Serpenti motif means is largely a matter of personal interpretation. However, Roman designs inspired the Bulgari Serpenti, and in Ancient Rome, snakes were symbols of fertility, rebirth and protection from evil. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of Bulgari pieces.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 5, 2024Bulgari watches are expensive for a few reasons. For one thing, Bulgari's artisans often use painstakingly complex, time-consuming crafting techniques to make the dramatic timepieces. One example is the tubogas jewelry technique, which links a flexible series of thin horizontal bands and is what gives Bulgari's iconic Serpenti watch its coiling effect. Due to the amount of time and skill it takes to execute its techniques, Bulgari tends to have high labor costs. In addition, the luxury maker uses pricey materials such as 18-karat gold, platinum and titanium. Also, the number of Bulgari watches produced each year is usually less than the demand for them, which leads to higher pricing. On 1stDibs, explore a variety of Bulgari watches.
- Why is Bulgari spelled Bvlgari?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Why Bulgari is spelled Bvlgari comes down to the concept behind the brand's logo and word mark. The actual name of the luxury jewelry house is Bulgari. However, its logo and trademark spell the name as BVLGARI to make it resemble the convention of the Latin alphabet as a reflection of the location of its headquarters in Rome, Italy. In addition, the "V" represents the initial of the last name of founder Sotirios Voulgaris. Find a diverse assortment of Bulgari jewelry on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024The difference between Bulgari and BVLGARI comes down to usage. Bulgari is the proper name of the luxury Italian jewelry house. However, in advertising and in its logo, Bulgari's brand name appears as BVLGARI. Changing the U to a V is meant to reference the Latin alphabet and represent Bulgari's roots as a company founded in Rome. On 1stDibs, find an assortment of Bulgari jewelry, watches and accessories.
