A ruby, onyx, diamond and gold necklace, signed Bulgari

The Italian house of Bulgari is renowned for its innovative and timeless creations. Cabochon-cut stones were used in numerous creations from the 1960s onwards.
Juxtaposed with diamonds, the smooth domes of colored stones give Bulgari creations a distinctive aesthetic. The hexagonal cross-section sometimes imitates snake scales, as in the Serpenti creations, which can undulate like the reptiles they represent, and sometimes honeycomb cells, which give the jewel great suppleness.
