{"product_id":"bulgari-serpenti-tubogas-necklace-yellow-gold","title":"Bulgari Serpenti Tubogas Necklace Yellow Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bulgari Serpenti Tubogas necklace is worked in 18k yellow gold. Tubogas is the technique rather than the motif: flexible gold spirals wound around a form without solder, a method Bulgari has kept in house since the 1940s and which almost nobody else attempts at this scale. The result is a collar that moves with the wearer while holding its shape, finished with a modelled serpent head and tapered tail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTubogas is slow to produce and difficult to repair, which keeps output limited. The yellow gold version is the most traditional reading of the technique and the one most closely associated with the house archive. Sourced privately, with condition reviewed in full before any commitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is the metal tubogas was originally developed in during the 1930s, and pieces in this tone are generally read as closer to Bulgari's archival intent than the white or rose gold versions introduced later. The collar sits close to the neck rather than draping, which means length and fit matter more here than on a longer, more flexible necklace style. Clutch confirms the collar's internal circumference against the wearer's neck measurement before any sale, given how little flex a fitted tubogas piece allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause tubogas construction is difficult to repair without disturbing the coil's tension, Clutch inspects the spiral's flexibility and the modelled head closely on each piece before confirming a sale, since minor damage to this construction is harder to remedy than on a solid cast piece.
