Bulgari constructs its bracelets like pieces of mechanical goldsmithing. The Tubogas, a flexible tube coiled without any visible soldering, must retain its spring tension: a slack example cannot be restored. The Serpenti, with its articulated scales, is assessed by the fluidity of its articulation and by the condition of the lacquer or enamel between the scales.
Each bracelet is authenticated before being offered for sale: hallmarks, signature, serial number, spring tension check for Tubogas, scale by scale examination for Serpenti, clasp and stone setting verification. Certificate of authenticity provided.
| Collection | Character | Checkpoints |
|---|---|---|
| Serpenti | Scaled snake, lacquer or gold, gem-set eyes | Articulation, lacquer chips, eye stones |
| B.zero1 | Spiral inspired by the Colosseum, engraved logo | Sharpness of the engraving, condition of the ceramic |
| Bulgari Bulgari | Double logo, maison signature | Logo stamping, polish of the surfaces |
| Tubogas | Flexible coiled tube, without visible soldering | Spring tension, regularity of the coils |
| Parentesi, Divas' Dream | Architectural and fan motifs | Link alignment, settings |
Bulgari readily mixes materials, and this changes everything in the assessment. An all gold B.zero1, a steel and gold model and a version with a ceramic insert are not comparable. Black ceramic scratches little but chips on the edges, steel wears well but reveals successive polishing, gold remains the most stable value on resale. We systematically specify the exact composition of each piece on its listing.
Rarely in a satisfactory way. This is a point we check before purchase, and a piece whose spring has failed does not join our selection.
No, provided the articulation has never been forced. We check full opening and closing and the absence of any blocked or replaced scale.
Yes, by direct purchase or on consignment. Photos of the bracelet, its signature and its clasp are sufficient for an initial valuation.
