About the Item
A vintage 18k gold tubogas necklace with a sleek, refined profile. Its subtle ridged surface reflect the light in a soft, understated way.
The tubogas style is recognized for its smooth, coiled construction, created from interlocking bands of gold that form a tubular shape. This design is versatile and easy to wear, making it a classic addition to your necklace stack.
The Tubogas style draws its inspiration from gas pipes, a design concept that Bulgari embraced in the 1940s with the help of designer Carlo Weingrill. As the name suggests, Tubogas is flexible and can be adapted to various jewelry pieces, from rings to watches. The technique, originally a 19th-century plumbing process, involves wrapping metal in tight coils around a rod, then removing the rod to create a hollow chain. This technique gained traction among French jewelers in the 1940s and became a signature element for Bulgari, thanks to its collaboration with Weingrill. One of the most notable applications of Tubogas was in Bulgari's Serpenti watch collection, where the coiled design mimicked a snake, a powerful symbol in ancient Roman culture.
