The Bvlgari Tubogas collection returns to the fore

An iconic design from the house of Bvlgari, the industrial-inspired Tubogas knitwear is available in 16 new pieces. A compulsory subject for returning to school.

Material constraints often drive ingenuity. Such was the case with Bvlgari during World War II. With platinum and diamonds hard to come by, the Italian jeweler took a liking to yellow gold and developed new techniques inspired by industrial gas pipes and car exhausts. 1948 saw the birth of the first Serpenti watches, geometric watches mounted on Tubogas bracelets that wrap around the wrist.

Quiet luxury

This sober design, which mixes the world of jewelry with an industrial aesthetic, is very popular with women who have changed during these war years. Of course, most return to their social lives, but with a concern for prudence. These new wristwatches, which combine the useful touch of a flexible tube and the shine of gold, have the advantage of their appearance with elegance, but without ostentatiousness.

Behind the scenes

Technically speaking, these gold meshes are actually ribbons wrapped around a metal core to create precious rounded, flexible and flawless bands. Sophisticated know-how developed by Bvlgari artisans and still mastered by the best of them after years of experience.

Expensive variations

Truly cult since the 1970s and associated over time with other brand codes such as Monete and Parentesi, Tubogas today offers sixteen new references: bracelets, a set in solid gold or diamonds, necklaces such as these chokers , which are illuminated in their centers with bright colors. , tanzanite, rubellite or green tourmaline or even Serpenti pieces that continue to explore the ideal association of the reptilian image and this precious and undulating network that makes Tubogas successful to this day.
