The miniature architecture of the Colosseum
Launched in 1999, Bvlgari's B.zero1 collection draws its inspiration from the primary lines of the Colosseum in Rome. This sculptural series fuses the heritage of the Tubogas technique, identifiable by its wide tubular spiral, with the deep engraving of the House's double logo on the side ferrules. This powerful aesthetic defines this pendant, reference 352815, crafted entirely in 18-carat white gold. Acquiring this necklace as second-hand jewellery allows you to appropriate a slice of Roman design history and a visual identity that is instantly recognisable on the wrist or neck.
Architecture and jewellery expertise
The aesthetics of this creation rest entirely on the mastery of gold and mechanical engineering. Devoid of gems, the massive setting features a central cylinder estimated to be 1.5 centimetres high. The main spiral, obtained by a complex winding of metal strips with no visible soldering, is framed by 2 flat, protruding rings. This know-how ensures that the generous structure is absolutely rigid. The regular polishing of the smooth surfaces catches the light with intensity and more than compensates for the absence of paving with a purely metallic sparkle.
Why this second-hand necklace
Opting for this second-hand piece is both an aesthetic and a savvy move. Faced with the costs of today's craftsmanship and raw materials, this model offers a substantial volume of gold and a major Italian signature on rational terms. The absence of precious stones allows us to concentrate on the exceptional density of the material. This intelligent approach validates the acquisition of a design classic whose tubular design remains exclusive to the manufacture's historic workshops.
