Description from the seller
A compact BVLGARI Serpenti chain shoulder bag, distinguished by its sculptural serpent-head closure and richly textured red and burgundy exterior. The gold-tone chain and enamelled serpent motif give the piece a jewellery-inspired character while retaining the restrained proportions of a miniature evening or crossbody bag.
Stylistically reflects BVLGARI’s Serpenti design language, in which the historic serpent motif is translated from jewellery into fashion accessories. The combination of a structured flap silhouette, snake-inspired surface treatment and enamelled serpent-head closure is characteristic of the Serpenti aesthetic.
