18K Gold Bulgari Lapis Lazuli Plaque Bracelet

This bold and architectural bracelet by Bulgari exemplifies the house’s unmistakable approach to color, volume, and form—where classical materials are rendered with modern authority.

Crafted in 18k yellow gold, the bracelet is composed of articulated oval plaques, each framing a richly saturated lapis lazuli panel. The lapis displays deep ultramarine tones with subtle natural inclusions, offering a vivid contrast against the warm, polished gold. Bulgari’s characteristic emphasis on cabochon color and sculptural surfaces is fully expressed here: the stones are treated as fields of color rather than ornament, allowing their natural presence to dominate.

The bracelet’s construction is both fluid and substantial. Each plaque is seamlessly linked, creating a supple movement around the wrist while maintaining a strong visual rhythm. The integrated clasp is discreet and perfectly balanced within the design, reinforcing Bulgari’s mastery of functional elegance.

Measuring 7½ inches in length and 0.75 inches in width, and weighing 47.2 grams, the bracelet has a confident, luxurious feel—bold without excess, refined without restraint. It is a piece designed to be worn as a statement, embodying Bulgari’s timeless fascination with color-blocking, symmetry, and architectural clarity.

Very good condition. Lapis lazuli well-preserved with rich color; gold showing light surface wear consistent with age; clasp secure and functioning properly.

A striking and highly collectible Bulgari bracelet—where saturated color, sculptural gold, and impeccable Italian design converge.
