Rare Necklace Auction Launches for Lake Como EDITION Hotel
URGENT UPDATE: A stunning, one-of-a-kind necklace is now up for auction to celebrate the grand opening of the highly anticipated Lake Como EDITION Hotel, set to debut in March 2026. Designed by Sarah Ysabel Narici of DYNE, this exquisite piece embodies the luxury and beauty of its picturesque surroundings.
The necklace, titled “Verdant Reverie: The Gem of the Alps at The Lake Como EDITION,” features a unique 18-karat yellow gold chain adorned with luminous mottled jade and a sparkling diamond clasp. Bidding is currently open and will continue through December 11, with expected bids between $15,000 and $25,000. This auction is taking place at Sotheby’s, solidifying the piece as a true collectible.
What makes this auction particularly appealing is not just the necklace itself, but the luxurious experience accompanying it. The winning bidder will enjoy a two-night stay in a penthouse suite at the Lake Como EDITION, featuring lavish Calacatta Turquoise and Calacatta Gold Stone marble, along with breathtaking views of the lake and the Bellagio Hills. Additionally, the winner will receive a private boat tour of Lake Como, a custom detox treatment at the hotel’s “Longevity Spa,” and an exclusive dinner with three-Michelin-starred chef Mauro Colagreco at his new restaurant, Cetino.
Narici drew inspiration from the enchanting landscape of Lake Como, stating that the necklace reflects the “lapping waves and meandering shoreline,” with jade that evokes the “verdant hue” of Como’s waters. This collaboration between EDITION Hotels, Sotheby’s, and DYNE epitomizes a commitment to merging luxury travel with collectible art.
George Fleck, Senior Vice President and Global Brand Leader of EDITION, remarked, “This collaboration reflects EDITION’s commitment to redefining modern luxury by thoughtfully embedding contemporary design within the world’s most storied landscapes.” He emphasized the necklace as emblematic of the hotel’s aim to achieve global acclaim.
