Created to celebrate the new millennium, the B.zero 1 collection has been reinterpreted over the years, exploring different colours, materials and configurations that reinforce and contextualize the design without compromising the integrity of the 1999 original.

Continuing their ongoing collaborations, in 2015 Bulgari invited Zaha Hadid to reinvent the B.zero 1 collection. The new B.zero 1 ring marries brand’s bold, geometric style with her fluid design language.

Two flat bands with the classic logo engraving of the original 1999 ring are connected by undulating lines of gold that intersect to create a delicate three-dimensional filigree around its circumfrence. This intricate, curvilinear structure conveys the fluidity and dynamism inherent within Hadid’s architecture.
