The numismatic heritage of this Bvlgari pendant
Launched in 1977, the Bvlgari Bvlgari collection draws its inspiration from ancient Roman coins on which the emperor's name encircled the central effigy. This reversible second-hand pendant is a direct tribute to that tradition. It features two smooth ornamental discs measuring 20 mm in diameter. One side reveals a white mother-of-pearl with rich iridescent reflections, while the second features a black onyx of absolute opacity. The Roman House structures this reference 336226 around a large two-tone motif combining 18-carat yellow gold and stainless steel.
Architecture and jewellery expertise
The design of this piece is based on remarkable technical ingenuity. The central disc is held in place by an articulated hinge that allows the motif to be turned over with a simple gesture. The two stones are held together by a closed setting of absolute precision. The gemmological material is perfectly flush with the wide metal edge, leaving a smooth surface to the touch. The contrast between the mirror polish of the two-tone frame and the matt finish of the wide black leather strap underscores the model's bold aesthetic. A sturdy lobster clasp secures the piece.
Why this second-hand pendant
Acquiring this archival piece represents a discerning approach. This large-format edition offers an imposing physical volume and a density of precious materials rare in contemporary productions of equivalent budget. Its reversible design means you can have 2 pieces of jewellery in 1, and vary the look to suit your outfit. The current cost of such a work of assembly in solid gold and steel makes this opportunity all the more relevant for lovers of historic designs.
