A sleek choice for day-to-night dressing, this silver Bvlgari B.Zero1 bracelet adds polished shine to a tailored office look and transitions effortlessly to cocktails or a gallery opening. Equally elegant worn solo for a refined finish at a dinner date or layered for weekend brunch, it brings Italian modernity to any occasion.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What exactly is this B.zero1 bracelet made of? A: It is crafted in sterling silver (925) with a classic chain‑link profile and a signature B.zero1 spiral ring charm, finished with a toggle closure. The piece is made in Italy and this listing includes a box as stated under Accessories.
Q: What wrist size does it fit and how do I check my size at home? A: It fits a wrist up to about 13.5 cm. To check, wrap a soft measuring tape snugly around the narrowest part of your wrist (just above the wrist bone). For toggle bracelets, a close, comfortable fit is best; if the bracelet is too loose, a toggle can be easier to work free during wear.
Q: Are toggle clasps secure for everyday wear? A: Yes—when the bracelet length is correct. Toggle clasps rely on the bar being longer than the ring opening and the bracelet sitting fairly close to the wrist. If a piece wears very loose on you, the clasp can be more prone to slipping open; in that case, consider having a jeweller adjust the length for a neater fit.
Q: Can this bracelet be resized? A: Shortening is usually possible by removing links through a professional jeweller. Lengthening generally requires adding non‑original links, which may not perfectly match and can affect originality and resale value. We recommend keeping any alterations minimal and professionally executed.
Q: Will the silver tarnish, and how should I care for it? A: Sterling silver naturally develops tarnish over time. Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth, store in an anti‑tarnish pouch, and avoid humidity, perfumes, lotions, and chlorinated or salt water. For light tarnish, use a quality silver‑polishing cloth; for heavier oxidation, a mild silver cleaner used as directed is preferable.
Q: Is the silver rhodium‑plated? A: Bulgari has produced sterling‑silver pieces both with and without rhodium plating. If your bracelet has a rhodium finish, avoid abrasive polishes and stick to gentle soap, water, and a soft cloth; re‑plating can be done by a skilled jeweller if the finish dulls. If unplated, a silver‑polishing cloth is suitable for restoring shine.
Q: What hallmarks or markings should I expect to see? A: Authentic pieces typically show crisp, evenly spaced engravings such as BVLGARI (with a V), “MADE IN ITALY”, and the metal fineness (925 for sterling silver). Some items also carry a serial or maker’s mark. The quality of the stamping and finishing should be clean and precise.
Q: Is the B.zero1 charm removable or interchangeable? A: The charm is attached as part of the design and is not intended to be removed or swapped by the wearer. Any modification should be done only by a professional jeweller and may affect originality and future servicing or resale considerations.
Q: What is the story behind Bulgari’s B.zero1 design? A: Introduced in 1999, B.zero1 is inspired by Rome’s Colosseum, translating its bold, circular architecture into a modern spiral motif. The charm on this bracelet echoes that signature spiral form.
Q: How does A Retro Tale verify authenticity? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hallmarks, and engravings. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
