Rooted in the Greek words poly (many) and chromia (color), and ending with a nod to Rome—the Eternal City—Polychroma lives up to its name by turning color into a living language. The collection plays with over 65 different gemstones cut into 16 unique shapes, including cabochon, buff top, Asscher, and sugarloaf, presenting an orchestra of textures and hues. With design influences ranging from ancient mosaics to celestial bodies and architectural grandeur, each piece stands as a transcendent work of wearable art.
Introducing the Gallery of Wonders
At the heart of Polychroma lies the Gallery of Wonders are spectacular high jewelry masterpieces that epitomize Bvlgari’s chromatic audacity. The Cosmic Vault necklace is a celestial marvel, showcasing a 123.35-carat sugarloaf sapphire from Sri Lanka. Its Royal Blue tone evokes the legendary gem once worn by Elizabeth Taylor, with a velvet-like sheen achieved through the rare sugarloaf cut. Constructed from over 200 meticulously placed elements, the piece incorporates 331 buff-top sapphires and 13 diamond drops, all designed to mimic the fluid architecture of Roman domes.

“Polychroma is an enchanting journey into the world of color,” explains Lucia Silvestri, Bvlgari’s Jewelry Creative Director. “Each piece draws from artistic and cultural inspirations around the globe. It is not just a collection—it’s a celebration of emotional storytelling through color.”
Reviving Iconic Designs with a Modern Twist Bvlgari also reinterprets its iconic Trombino ring, originally created in 1928, with a daring new look titled Essence of Yellow. This platinum masterpiece is centered around an ultra-rare 45-carat fancy vivid yellow diamond—so rare, it appears only once in every eight million stones. Instead of a traditional brilliant cut, Bvlgari opted for an Asscher cut to enhance the stone’s depth and architectural presence, surrounded by 42 step-cut diamonds and pavé settings
