Bulgari Unleashes Romantic Artistry in New Timepieces Tribute to Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera

The intricate story of love affairs coupled with the beauty of Bulgari’s gemstones has intrigued the world for decades. The timeless romance of Liz Taylor and Richard Burton breathed new life into Bulgari’s exquisite creations. This proved that a well-orchestrated love story could catalyse any luxury brand’s identity. Following the same legacy, Bulgari has crafted two new gemstones to their timepiece collection, these dedicated to the celebrated Mexican artists Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera.

To commemorate Kahlo’s life, Bulgari presents a Tubogas Manchette. This solid yellow gold cuff watch, inspired by the 1970s Bulgari Tubogas watch, wraps artistically around the wrist with geometrical links. Each link carries an inscription from Kahlo’s biographer Beatriz Alvarado’s novel, revealing Kahlo’s passionate persona. Adding glamour to this tribute is the mother-of-pearl dial with diamond hour indices and the powerful Bulgari’s small Lady Solotempo mechanical movement. This delivers a robust 50-hour power reserve, despite its light weight and small dimensions.

As for Diego Rivera, Bulgari showcases an elegant Octo Finissimo timepiece, celebrating the artist’s influence in Mexican art, culture, and history. Bulgari’s tribute to the artists, manifested via these luxurious timepieces, interweaves romantic artistry with premium horology, marking a new chapter in Bulgari’s long history of craftsmanship. It embodies a powerful fusion between the past and present, showcasing human resilience, artistry, and passionate love.
