Official description

The word “chimera” refers to an unattainable dream and is the synonym for “utopian”. Serpenti Misteriosi Chimera refers to the divine creature, initially described by Homere in the Iliad. This fantastic animal was combining the body parts of two emblematic animals in the history of Bvlgari and Rome: the signature snake and the iconic lion, symbols of rebirth and eternity for the former, and of courage and determination for the latter. A sinuous white gold snake with diamond and emerald scales wraps around the wrist culminating with two heads, one of a snake, and one of a lion, - this last one inspired by a Bvlgari archival piece dating back to the Fifties. The head of the snake hides the smallest round mechanical movement ever made, Piccolissimo – a jewel in a jewel.
