Italian 18K Yellow Gold Tubogas Coil Bracelet

Popular since the 1930s and 40s, the Tubogas coil features interlocking gold bands wrapped tightly together to form a flexible and innovative hollow tubular chain that requires no soldering between links. Since then, the Tubogas coil has been used by the likes of famous jewelry houses such as Van Cleef & Arpels and Roman jeweler Bulgari as the star of their iconic Serpenti watch.

This unique Italian example is crafted of buttery 18k yellow gold. Spaced across the arch, three rows of diamonds are set in contrasting white gold, enhancing the glamour of the piece. The Tubogas coil creates a unique movement in the bracelet, which flexes over and around the wearer’s wrist with ease, providing a luxurious and comfortable wear.
