This article highlights Bvlgari’s festive jewelry designs, as showcased by ambassadors Liu Yifei and Jolin Tsai. The pieces blend bold serpentine motifs with traditional elements, offering a modern take on celebratory style.
When it comes to recent festive yet unconventional jewelry interpretations, Bvlgari undoubtedly makes the list. Global brand ambassador Liu Yifei debuted wearing the Serpenti Viper Lunar New Year Special Edition in a layered style. Rubies flow within the serpentine lines, embodying both power and elegance. The Bvlgari Bvlgari bracelet limited to Greater China on her wrist, woven with carnelian and mother-of-pearl, exudes a warm luster, effortlessly wearing “New Year’s good luck” with full presence.
Jolin Tsai perfectly demonstrates what it means for “red to also be very fashionable.” She wears the Bvlgari Bvlgari series limited edition necklace and earrings, layered with a B.zero1 necklace, instantly making her neckline the focal point. Paired with the Serpenti Seduttori limited edition watch, the ruby-colored skeleton dial echoes the brilliance of the jewelry. Together with the Serpenti Cuoricino bag, the entire ensemble is like a meticulously arranged New Year’s overture—lively, yet quintessentially Bvlgari.
The new creations from Cartier’s Clash de Cartier series center on dynamic, free-flowing structures and delicate textures, achieved through the interplay of signature elements like beads, studs, and Clous de Paris. Actress Zhang Jingyi debuted wearing multiple pieces, perfectly interpreting the essence of this series—avant-garde in appearance, yet exceptionally wearable in practice. The newly introduced yellow gold necklace and bracelet instantly refresh the design language, traditionally dominated by rose gold, with fuller proportions and an increased number of links, directly upgrading their presence.
Even more interesting is the use of materials and colors. Red and green onyx and pink chalcedony are interspersed among beads and studs, creating a strong rhythm without being ostentatious. The convertible pendant earrings are a boon for practicality—suitable for work today, a date tomorrow, and a banquet the day after. They fully embody the free, avant-garde, and highly individualistic design attitude of Clash de Cartier.
The new Wulu Petite Pearl collection launched by Qeelin just before Valentine’s Day, showcased by global ambassador Im Yoona (Yoona), directly maxes out the tenderness quotient. The 18K rose gold diamond-set Akoya pearl red cord bracelet and drop earrings speak of Eastern aesthetics in a way that is both romantic and modern.
Inspired by the iconic Wulu gourd totem, symbolizing completeness and blessings, paired with round pearls and diamond outlines, it’s like materializing well-wishes. The red cord design subtly carries the cultural寓意 of “red thread tying fate,” understated yet emotionally intense, condensing Eastern symbolism and modern craftsmanship into precious and moving jewelry art.
