Hailing from Greece, Sotirios Bulgari traveled to Italy in 1880, opening in Naples and producing archeological revival jewelry. He soon developed a large enough following to require larger premises and additional locations. During the early twentieth century, Sotirios’s sons had a major impact on the character of Bulgari’s style. From the 1920’s to the 1960’s, Bvlgari created jewelry made in the Edwardian, Deco, and Retro styles. By the 1970’s the focus again shifted to creating a unique style all their own, which continues in their work today.

Measurements: The necklace is adjustable and at its longest, measures approximately 16 1/4 inches inner circumference.

Overall Condition: There is slight tarnishing to the gold and moderate scratching to the metal.
