The Prize

The expertise of the Villa Milano jewelry house and the unmistakable design of the Portofino Dry Gin bottle - the recognizable elementsof the two brands- combine to result in two pairs of limited edition cufflinks.

The white gold and topaz version is now up for auction. Villa Milano uses these precious materials to reproduce the renowned Portofino Dry Gin bottle as cufflinks, embodying the exclusivity and elegance of Italian style.

The precious accessory comes in an elegant brass case that takes the form of the bottles used to display gin in bars. This exclusive case was designed and created by G Lab, the design workshop for “made to measure” production.

In addition to this precious piece of jewelery, the auction winner and a friend will also have the chance to fully immerse themselves in a “Portofino experience” when they spend a weekend at the Hotel Nazionale in Portofino in 2022.

The two guests will have the opportunity to visit the Pudel family villa where the 21 botanicals that go into Portofino Dry Gin are grown. They will be invited to choose one botanical to plant in garden and will receive 6 bottles of Portofino Dry Gin for Christmas 2022, bringing the spirit of the Italian Riviera to you.

The purchase of unique items through an auction house requires careful evaluation by the buyer. We invite you to personally examine all the information and material at your disposal, including our returns policy, before proceeding with purchase.
