About Bulgari Spiga collection
Spiga is the Italian word for spike. More literal translation is the part of a wheat plant which contains the seed. Spiga zigzag pattern was introduced by Bulgari in 1990 and then became iconic.
The design looks contemporary, yet it rooted in the ancient symbolism. Representing prosperity and fertility, Spiga also brings together Roman and Greek cultures. Being a symbol of wheat seed sitting inside the stalk, this chevron pattern carries a metaphor of love and infinity.
An unconventional combo of a precious metal and stainless steel reflects Bulgari’s authentic taste. The contrast coils complement each other and provide an edgy look to Spiga collection.

Opulent shapes, bright colored stones and an unexpected mixture of materials creates that special, always recognizable Bulgari vibe.
About estate jewelry
Buying jewelry online might be challenging. The quality of the making has not got better over the time while the design is getting more and more generic. Add ever rising prices and you could end up with not finding anything suitable. To purchase a high-quality jewelry piece for an obtainable price consider buying estate items.
- Quality vs Quantity
Estate pieces mostly belong to the era when jewels were handmade and not mass produced. There were simply less jewelry makers at that time and they cared about their reputation. Opposed to the current fast fashion approach, life pace was in general slower. That allowed makers to take more time to craft a truly quality piece.
- Fair price vs Overpriced
Designer pieces aka signed pieces can cost multiple times more than their unsigned equivalents. We pay not only for an item itself but also for the brand advertising campaigns and all the buzz the name is creating. Prices for estate jewelry form differently and mostly depend on the cost paid by a seller. A pre-owned Bulgari ring and a brand-new Bulgari piece have a very appealing price difference. Ask your local jewelry store about a retail price of the desired piece and you’d be pleasantly surprised.
- True value vs Seasonal rush
Pre-owned jewelry retains its value. Over the time it gets rare and more expensive. Think purchasing a new car that loses its value right after you left your dealer versus buying a vintage vehicle.
