Milan shines the spotlight on the American Alligator.
Tardini pays homage to perfection with its accessories in an evening dedicated to craftsmanship.
On 28 September, the magnificent Presidential Suite in the Hotel Principe di Savoia hosted an event by Richard Mille. Tardini and other luxury brands including Antico Setificio Fiorentino, Sartoria Caraceni, Coltellerie Berti, Fratelli Branca Distillerie, Davidoff Cigars and Almini footwear illustrated the meaning of elegance, excellence and aesthetic through their products.
Over the course of the evening, the master artisans assembled and completed some items from their collections.
The result was a true work of art from craftsmanship requiring centuries of tradition and hours upon hours of hard work, which may even amount to months, to achieve an increasingly more exquisite and unique product.
The care is maniacal, the attention to detail superb, the quality sublime. Evaluators and gentlemen admired exclusive watches, finely-crafted fabrics and skins and breath-taking accessories, while sampling small pastries accompanied by excellent fizz and good music.
“Unique consumer goods, those that merely by looking at them, wearing them, touching them, smelling them do they move you, and impart upon you a profound sense of qualitative fulfilment and extreme beauty,” said Frank Botrè, editor and director of Arbiter and Spirito diVino, architect behind the union of the luxury brands in attendance, and close friend of Giuseppe Tardini.
