A striking example of Bulgari’s bold 1980s aesthetic, this Bvlgari Bvlgari Tubogas bracelet unites the house’s Roman heritage with the sleek geometry that defined its late-20th-century design language. Crafted in 18-karat yellow gold, the bracelet showcases the signature Tubogas construction—an engineering feat of interlocking metal bands with no soldering creating a flexible, fluid coil that wraps the wrist with effortless comfort.

At its center sits two polished black onyx disc, framed by the engraved BVLGARI BVLGARI double logo. Inspired by ancient Roman coins, this iconic bezel motif became a defining Bulgari symbol in the 1970s and 1980s, expressing prestige, modernity, and unmistakable brand identity.

The contrast between the warm gold and the deep, mirror-like onyx reflects the decade’s love of dramatic, architectural jewelry. Both sculptural and wearable, this bracelet captures the sophistication of an era while remaining one of Bulgari’s most enduring and collectible designs.
