Celebrate the extravagance and enchantment of the Mediterranean, magnify the colours and voluptuous shapes of a marvellous world to infinity, wake up to the pleasure and art of life: the Haute Couture universe is the full expression of Bertolucci creativity. Free, audacious inspiration based on the expertise of an ancient craft.
The Bertolucci Haute Couture is a luxurious, daring combination, revealing a jeweller's expertise in prestigious pieces made entirely by hand with the finest materials. Bertolucci has drawn upon the arts of watch-making and jewellery to surprise you with the exclusive creation STRIA LUCE, the most glamorous jewel of this season… STRIA, the latest great classic from Bertolucci, merges with the magic of kaleidoscope.
A glittering cover dresses the pure and timeless lines of STRIA by the richness of gold and the sparkle of precious stones. Paying tribute to the enchanting colours and lights of Mediterranean coasts, the jeweller cover rotates to give life to the delicate ripples of shell, showing through a firework of precious stones specially hand cut in cabochon.
Once again, Bertolucci innovates in stones cutting and setting to explore new avenues in creation and the hand made jewellery work gives birth to the strong inspiration of STRIA LUCE which will transport prestigious women in the magical universe of the Italian Riviera.
