Pre-owned Bulgari ring: architecture and materials<\/h2>\n

A Bulgari ring is recognisable by its construction. The B.zero1<\/strong> takes its spiral from the Colosseum and bears the double engraved logo on both sides : the sharpness of this stamping is the first indication of authenticity, and the first sign of excessive repolishing when it begins to fade. The Serpenti<\/strong>, meanwhile, coils around the finger and is assessed by the regularity of its scales.<\/p>\n

Each ring is authenticated before being offered for sale : hallmarks, signature, serial number, size engraving, setting inspection and condition check of the ceramic inserts. Certificate of authenticity provided.<\/p>\n

Ceramic changes the rules<\/h2>\n

Bulgari made extensive use of black and white ceramic in its rings. It hardly scratches, which keeps it attractive for a long time, but it chips on the edges in the event of impact and cannot be repaired. A B.zero1 with a ceramic insert must therefore be examined edge by edge, under magnification. By contrast, an all-gold model can accommodate light repolishing and is easier to resize.<\/p>\n

Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n

Can a B.zero1 be resized to fit me ?<\/h3>\n

All-gold models can, to a certain extent and in the workshop. Versions with a ceramic insert cannot. We state the size on each product page and tell you immediately whether an adjustment is possible.<\/p>\n

Does the engraved logo wear away ?<\/h3>\n

It becomes less distinct with successive polishing. A stamping that is still deep is a good sign : this is one of the points we check before buying a piece.<\/p>\n

Do you buy back Bulgari rings ?<\/h3>\n

Yes, through direct purchase or consignment. Photos of the ring, its signature and its inner engraving are sufficient for an initial valuation.<\/p>\n

A specific piece in mind ?<\/h2>\n

Signed pieces sell quickly and not all are listed online. If you are looking for a particular model, size or material, let us know : we will inform you as soon as a matching piece arrives in the boutique. Describe your search<\/a> or call the boutique on 06 07 10 31 64<\/a>.<\/p>\n
