Artisanal craftsmanship rises to a crescendo with the launch of Bvlgari’s new high jewelry collection, Polychroma, this week in Taormina, Sicily. Spanning jewelry, watches, and exclusive jewelry bags, eyewear and fragrances, the Polychroma collection pushes the boundaries of metiers d’art—blending color, chiaroscuro, polymorphism, and a vibrancy of chromatics in these masterpieces of fine jewelry. Polychroma represents more than just jewels; it’s a testament to the boundless artistry and creativity that rises from the fusion of beauty and nature’s gifts.

The name originates from the Greek prefix poly-, meaning “multitude,” and suffix chromia, meaning “colors.” Polychroma is meant to evoke—to bridge eras and cultures within pieces that communicate emotions and stories.

The High Jewelry line within the Polychroma collection boasts five distinct creations: the Cosmic Vault, the Celestial Mosaic, the Polychromatic Bloom, the Essence of Yellow, and the Emerald Magnus. Each piece spotlights the mastery behind the hands that assemble the gems—with a Sri Lankan sugarloaf sapphire, a Tajikistan spinel, a rubellite juxtaposed with a peridot and a tanzanite, a rare yellow diamond, or the biggest emerald ever used by Bvlgari’s jewelers, these works of art embody the majesty of the Polychroma collection.

The Polychroma High Jewelry Watches combine the sophistication of Swiss timepiece craftsmanship with the most precious and rarest gems, with five milestone pieces at its helm. The Nuvole Preziose, the Notte Stellata, the Serpenti Aeterna, the Gioco di Forme e Colori, and the Tubogas e Colori redefine wearable timepieces with a prismatic splendor one can only find within this collection. Each piece boasts the rarest of gems assembled in stunning kaleidoscopes—with cushion-cut yellow sapphires, to yellow diamonds and blue sapphires, to white gold surrounding sapphires and emeralds, to tourmalines, citrines and rubellites, and many more precious gems and stones that embody the legacy of Bvlgari.

The High Jewelry Bags and Eyewear are no less luxurious than their bedazzled counterparts. Merging striking shapes with exotic skins and detachable jewels, the bags emerge as timeless symbols of artistry, while the sunglasses—with 18kt rose gold, beads, and diamonds—act as a lens for eternal beauty. Finally, the Polychroma Perfume Collection boasts three one-of-a-kind fragrances that combine rose, tuberose and jasmine sambac, incense, sandalwood and Oud Assafi, all housed in exquisite Murano glass bottles adorned with a snake jewel and detachable brooch.
