This Muse of Rome Emerald Necklace is from BVLGARI’s 2023 “Mediterranea” high jewelry collection, drawing inspiration from the eternal beauty of ancient Rome. The most captivating feature is the central stone—a stunning 218.53-carat sugarloaf-cut emerald—showcasing remarkable presence and bold character.
Certified as of Colombian origin, the sugarloaf-cut magnifies the deep, vivid green of the exceptional emerald. It is secured by two diamond-accented claws, while the platinum setting remains nearly invisible, allowing the gemstone’s natural power to take center stage. 
The double-collar necklace incorporates sophisticated gem-setting and articulated craftsmanship. Sculpted in platinum with a rounded, three-dimensional form, it features hinged links set with step-cut emeralds and diamonds. A brilliant oval-cut diamond is highlighted within a section of pavé-set diamonds, adding radiant sparkle. The entire piece was handcrafted by two artisans, requiring over 2,300 hours of meticulous work.
