Bvlgari Bvlgari: A Journey Through Time

Italian luxury goods manufacturer Bvlgari introduced the Bvlgari Bvlgari collection in the late 1970s. At the time, international celebrities were flocking to Bvlgari's flagship shop on Rome's Via Condotti, bolstering Bvglari's global reputation. This new collection spoke to the confident, successful women of the era. As a result of its success, the company expanded the jewelry line globally.

The current Bvlgari Bvlgari collection contains women's watches ranging from 23 to 37 mm in diameter, as well as men's watches like the ref. 102977. There are many classic three-hand pieces, as well as more complicated models, including the extremely rare ref. 102034 with a tourbillon. This yellow gold timepiece sells for around 82,500 USD, making it one of the collection's most expensive watches.

Italian Luxury Watches with Greek Roots

In 1884, Greek goldsmith Sotirios Voulgaris opened several jewelry and antique shops in Rome. He later founded a boutique known as the "Old Curiosity Shop" on the Via Condotti in 1905. Bvlgari still runs this boutique to this day. From 1910 to his passing in 1934, Voulgaris specialized in crafting Art Deco jewelry. The company's major international breakthrough came in the 1950s and 60s when the likes of Marlene Dietrich, Clark Gable, and Audrey Hepburn began wearing Bvlgari jewelry.

Bvlgari released pieces in a wide range of styles in the 1970s. Sources of inspiration included the pop art movement pioneered by Andy Warhol. Around the same time, the company established their first boutique outside of Italy. From the 1970s to the 2000s, they opened stores in Paris, Monte Carlo, New York, and Geneva. In 2001, Bvlgari began a collaboration with the Marriott and Ritz-Carlton hotel chains and now operates boutiques at select locations. Today, Bvlgari also runs their own hotels around the globe, including in Milan, Bali, and London. Luxury good conglomerate LVMH (Moët Hennessy – Louis Vuitton SE) acquired Bvlgari in 2010. Other LVMH brands include Zenith, Dior, TAG Heuer, and Hublot.
