The bright, sand, and aquatic colors of the Adriatic Coast inspired Bottega's designers in their latest collections. The power of the tempting Adriatic waters can be seen throughout their latest offerings. Bottega designers have unearthed a treasure trove of antique hand blown glass beads. These were used to trim the bars of (limited-edition) high-heeled sandals, picking up the citrus and sky-blue or scarlet and gold tones of the brocades.
