The story

Presented in Paris in July 2015, Opera was the first line Buccellati built entirely from its own emblem, a shape the house relates to Renaissance and Baroque rosettes; the name nods to Italian opera and La Scala. The first pieces mixed engraved gold, diamonds and coloured stones, with cuffs Andrea Buccellati worked on personally. Later chapters set the rosette over tulle openwork, mother-of-pearl or chrysoprase.

Opera cuts the house's own four-petalled rosette free and wears it alone, the way the clover is worn.
