The founder of the company came from a small town in Greece where he acquired the skill of silversmthing. He created small items from silver and sold them from a cart on the streets of Italy.

Eventually a shop owner gave Mr Bulgari some window space and that's when things really started to move ahead for the Greek silversmith. By 1905, he was able to move into his very own location at Via Condotti, which now, more than one hundred years later, remains the flagship location. Astonishing.
