A striking pair of vintage Bvlgari earrings from the iconic Parentesi collection, crafted in polished 18k yellow gold and stainless steel.
Introduced in 1982, the Parentesi collection takes its name from the Italian word for “brackets”. Its distinctive interlocking motif was inspired by the architectural junctions found between the paving stones of Rome—transforming an everyday feature of the city into one of Bvlgari’s most recognisable designs.
The contrast between richly polished yellow gold and cool, reflective steel gives these earrings a bold, architectural presence. Substantial without feeling oversized, they sit beautifully against the ear and are fitted with posts and secure hinged omega backs for pierced ears.
A wonderfully wearable and increasingly collectable example of Bvlgari’s unmistakable 1980s design language.
Signed BVLGARI. Presented in their original Bvlgari case.
