Elevate evening or smart-casual looks with this Bvlgari B.zero1 Save the Children necklace in sterling silver with black ceramic details. In very good vintage condition, its pendant brings refined edge to dinners, gallery openings or polished everyday wear.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What is the B.zero1 Save the Children edition? A: It is a special version of Bulgari’s B.zero1 jewellery created in partnership with Save the Children in 2009. The design echoes the B.zero1 motif and the original retail sales supported the charity. As this is a pre-owned piece, this resale does not typically generate a new donation.
Q: What materials is this necklace made from? A: 925 sterling silver with a black ceramic B.zero1 pendant motif, finished with a lobster clasp. It is crafted in Italy and combines the brightness of silver with the sleek, scratch‑resistant look of ceramic.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it sit when worn? A: The chain on this specific piece measures approximately 46 cm. The pendant is about 1.5 cm in diameter and 1.0 cm in depth, so it sits as a subtle, everyday pendant around the base of the neck on most wearers. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact size of this item.
Q: Are Save the Children B.zero1 necklaces unisex? A: Yes. The B.zero1 line is conceived as a modern, unisex design that suits all genders and a wide range of styles.
Q: Is the chain length adjustable? A: Many Save the Children necklaces were supplied with factory adjustment rings (often around 38–45 cm). This vintage piece measures about 46 cm end to end; if you need a different drop, a jeweller can add a small extender or advise on alternatives.
Q: What hallmarks or engravings should I expect to see? A: Authentic examples typically feature crisp BVLGARI signatures using a ‘V’, the metal purity mark 925, and “MADE IN ITALY”, with additional maker or serial marks depending on production. Engravings should be clean and evenly spaced.
Q: How should I care for sterling silver and ceramic jewellery? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from perfumes, lotions, and chlorinated water to minimise tarnish. Store separately in a pouch to avoid rubbing. The ceramic element is highly scratch‑resistant but can chip if dropped or knocked—avoid hard impacts.
Q: What comes with this item? A: This listing is offered without accessories such as box or papers unless explicitly stated. Everything included is always listed under Accessories on this page.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this piece? A: Every item is checked by our in‑house experts using multi‑point reviews of materials, hallmarks, construction and finish. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
