Bvlgari Country Manager Mario Katigbak always provides fresh originality on these vibrant exhibitions with his detail for perfection; and without a doubt, the latest display of contemporary high jewelry was a showstopper. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Mario proudly showed us Bvlgari\u2019s captivating jewelry and watches, which were showcased on a pedestal, resplendent in its glory. Clearly one would expect a thick security glass encased display, yet the idea of having it open and easily reachable for the guests to try on the pieces proved irresistible.\u00a0 These were of daytime chic and nighttime sophistication. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>The privileged guests were treated to exquisite and unique luxuries.\u00a0 The selection of jewelry and limited edition watches were unmistakably Bvlgari, as it unveiled their most iconic pieces, the Monete and Serpenti.\u00a0 The collection carried one-of-a-kind pieces to ensure prime exclusivity, as these were part of the Bvlgari Collection International.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Champagne was the suitable accompaniment to the specialty hors d\u2019oeuvres, as we enjoyed the inspiring piano pieces by Maestro Raul Sunico. \u00a0Color and glitter capped the impeccably stylish experience. <em>(Do visit me at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tinajacinto.com\/\">www.tinajacinto.com<\/a> and like me in Facebook:\u00a0 Tina
