The Horsebit design was first sketched in a Gucci artisan’s notebook at the end of the 1940s and reflects the brand’s longstanding fascination with equestrianism. It swiftly became a hallmark of elegance in the 1950s, adorning handbags, belts and small leather goods, including the signature Horsebit loafer. During the 1970s, the Horsebit was first seen on bracelets and watches, leading to the launch of its own fine jewelry line in 2004. Today, in honor of its 20th Anniversary, the fine jewelry collection is reintroduced in an exquisite and emblematic way; Gucci.com.
