Elegant trophy vase in sterling silver (925/1000), crafted in Italy for the house of Bulgari by the Roman silversmith Aldo Vitali. Architectural in form, it features a cylindrical body reminiscent of a truncated column, entirely articulated with fine vertical fluting. The interior is gilded, creating a refined contrast with the gleam of the polished silver. The body rests on a stepped, molded circular base, which in turn sits upon a substantial square plinth.

The base bears the engraved inscription:

"TROPHÉE LANCÔME – PRIX DE L’ÉLÉGANCE BVLGARI".

This piece was created for the prestigious Trophée Lancôme, an international professional golf tournament held in France at the Golf de Saint-Nom-la-Bretèche from 1970 to 2003.
