These SAG Awards Jewels Stole the Virtual Broadcast
High jewelry from Bulgari and Cartier ruled the socially distanced show.

Maybe it’s the COVID-19 vaccine’s wider rollout or glam squads going a little stir-crazy at home (relatable), but if Kerry Washington’s synchronized swimmer-inspired at-home photoshoot pictured above is any indication, the Oscars will be as glam as they can be from afar.
Here are a few joyful jewelry looks from their precursor, the SAG Awards, held last Sunday in Los Angeles.
Got “Bridgerton” fever? You might after seeing series actress Sabrina Bartlett, nominated for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series, in a Bulgari Serpenti high jewelry necklace.
The high-wattage choker features 64.38 carats of diamonds in 18-karat white gold with two pear-shaped brilliant-cut emeralds for the eyes, weighing a total of 1.06 carats.
Carey Mulligan, nominated for Female Actor in a Leading Role in a Motion Picture, shone in emeralds.
She wore Cartier high jewelry earrings in platinum with emeralds and diamonds and the high jewelry ring shown above in 18-karat white gold with emeralds, rock crystal and diamonds.

She layered two gold collars from David Webb, one with enamel that matched her button earrings.
Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series nominee Jurnee Smollett piled on the Bulgari rubies to match her gown.
All in all, she rocked nearly 40 carats of rubies and 45 carats of diamonds, including two high jewelry necklaces and four rings.
