Bulgari's Kaleidos: A Celebration of Color and Culture

On December 2, 2025, Tokyo witnessed a spectacular gala dinner honoring the Bulgari Kaleidos exhibition, which is currently being held at the National Art Center. This exhibition marks a significant milestone for Bulgari, being the largest showcase in Japan in the last decade. Titled 'Kaleidos,' derived from the Greek words meaning 'beautiful' and 'form,' the exhibition features a selection of approximately 350 exquisite pieces of vibrant jewelry alongside contemporary artistic masterpieces. The collection aimed at taking visitors on a dynamic journey through a constantly evolving world of colors.

At the memorable gala dinner, actress Maho Toyoda shared her thoughts on the experience. She reflected, "Wearing Bulgari’s high-end pieces has become a wonderful memory in my life. I spent such a happy moment at this dreamlike party. Seeing the beauty of the heritage pieces on display and learning about Bulgari's history made me realize how gems can add color and vitality to life. I would be delighted to live my life as vibrantly as Kaleidos represents."
