Hello, I've registered right to reply to this threadHello,
thank you for your comment. Yes, I've asked in the store.
Here's what I was told: Water isn't that bad, it will get in the marble and make it darker but it will dry out, so the ring will go back to normal when it dries.
Bad for untreated marble are any acids. So you have to be very careful with spilled drinks (juice, coke, cocktail), while eating fruits, etc. If you get something on the ring, eg while eating an apple with yoiur hands, you should use water immediatly to get the spills off.
To be honest I just couldn't resist any more. I've been eyeing this ring for weeks and after 3 weeks (to be exact) of thinking about it, I got it. I really like the fact that every single ring is unique.
I'm proud to present my new baby![]()

I'm working as junior sales manager for the company which produces Bulgari's marble rings (we produce the inner and outer part, thus the marble AND the internal carbon fiber) and I've been really surprised by what the shopkeeper told you! Actually all three marbles have been selected and undergone 420 tests (!!), including being cooked in an oven for three hours and being left in a glass of lemon juice for a whole week. Actually, if you tried to stick your finger inside a glass containing muriatic acid, your finger would get damaged but your ring would still look the same

So, don't worry, go ahead and do whatever you want to do as if you were wearing nothing. The ring is VERY resistant, almost indestructible... You can try to throw it against a wall and it won't break (that's thanks to the carbon fiber which gives it strength).
I'm the person in charge for all business relations between the company I work for and Bulgari, therefore, should you need any further info, I remain at your disposal.
