Any Bvlgari / Bulgari wearers out there?

[astromunch]

I’m considering this one as well! Initially considered getting the double coil demi ring but the $$ gave me pause. The new single coil has the perfect amount of presence and bling!

Went into boutique to try them on, and while the demi-pavé is amazing, not too much, a just right pop, because I have another non-pavé ring on the same hand, the non-pavé serpenti worked best for me. They more “lived in the same world”. I’ll try to attach a couple pics. One other thing I noticed, you really get more detail in the non-pavé ring, as far as the scales. With the diamond version, you sacrifice a little of that…I mean, you sacrifice it to gorgeous diamonds, soooo, not the worst thing! 😆 (I’ll throw in a little extra pic too, see what the SA had me try on 😂. It’s insane. But honestly, fit like a glove. Man, they can really design/craft jewelry.)

New to this thread, need some advise and hope you can share your experiences.

I have been looking for a pinky ring and really love the serpentine viper ring, full pavé in WG. I have tried the various interations; semi, no diamonds, different metals and feel that the full pavé WG can be worn both as a dressed up statement piece but also more casually if that makes sense.
I had considered the RG as it is more toned down and fits my pale skin tone really nicely but have decided WG is the one I like the most.

I want an everyday piece, my only hesitation is how much care one must take and if banging/snagging can be an issue? Any experience you can share?

I wear a plain WG Cartier JUC small on my right pinky (right handed) and while I love it and no regrets at all. it does get caught and banged on everything. I mean it is a nail after all so hammering into it every now and then makes sense.

(I would wear the Bulgari on my left hand to keep more passive).

Is full pavé risky or can it be worn relatively carefree?

@astromunch , @Midnight0808
I have this ring. It doesn’t stretch at all, so I suggest buying your size in the heat of the summer if your fingers swell. Comfortable, and it doesn’t snag on anything as it lies pretty flat

@J.T. , a friend of mine owns the full pave ring and said it’s easier to wear than the JUC. I would assume that a plain metal ring would get more banged up and show more wear than full pave. Also, it seems to me from looking at pics that the JUC is pointier with more space (so more room to snag stuff, but that’s just a guess on my part) am sure someone will come along with more practical experience

Good point on the show of marks. I am a bit concerned about banging my hand and stones falling out, but it should be able to handle everyday life I guess. I take care of my stuff but clumsy is my middle name…
Yep the juc, particularly when worn on the pinky, gets caught in EVERYTHING!
I still have zero regrets getting it though, but would be hesitant to get another one.

I have it and it’s flatter and def more comfortable than my regular juc. My small juc is comfortable, but I would say since the serpenti lies flat, it’s fine. I had the same concern about the diamonds (esp since it has diamonds on the back), but it’s fine. Maybe get the plain version for a pinky ring?

Ah…the serpenti and panthere. My two fave lines. I would go for the Demi version - looks amazing on you!

I tried both plain and the new demi, double coil etc but they all unfortunately looked disproportionate on my fingers. I much prefer the full pavé look and I think how the diamonds catches the light makes it seem less thick.

I agree the small JUC is super comfortable to wear.

My SA let me try this on for fun. Stunning piece but it’s more a dragon than a serpent

What size is your pinky?

Does it look too bulky on? Any modeling pictures?

I too am looking for a tiny left hand pinky ring.

So far I am thinking of the VCA sweet pave ring.

for Bulgari the pinky ring would need to be a S for the serpenti viper although M would also work. Each size rages over 3 sizes as they flex. Otherwise 51 for their other rings. Cartier JUC I wear a 50 and for other brands it’s been as low as US 5. Basically it depends on the particular model what feels comfortable. So I would always try first.

Only found pics of the rose gold. And one of the JUC while trying a ring at Graff.

I would need a size 43. VCA is my best bet since they will make the exact size you need and ring is very dainty.

I pick the pave one for you.

Well if you know you like wg pave…get it! I think your mind is set. We support you!! And side note…I do think wg looks better on you. Rg doesn’t quite look as good on your skin.
