Bulgari Eclettica

Every year, Bvlgari launches a high-end jewellery collection comprising unique pieces. This year, the focus is on eclecticism and "artsmanship" – a dialogue between art, design and craftsmanship. The Eclettica collection presented in this book celebrates jewellery as a convergence of artistic disciplines across time and space. The brand’s creativity is fuelled by a dynamic fusion of influences as varied as sculpture, painting and architecture. This dialogue gives rise to a blend in which artistic codes meet contemporary experimentation, embodying a profound stylistic freedom.

The theme of jewellery and its artistic influences is illustrated by stunning photographs of the pieces, by insights from Lucia Silvestri, Creative Director of Jewellery at Bvlgari, as well as by discussions on the true nature of eclecticism between the design duo FormaFantasma and the artist Arlene Shechet, in conversation with Whitney Mallett.
