We were inspired by the lush glasshouses of Bombay’s distillery as well as the unique botanicals infused in Sapphire gin and wanted to create a piece that carries some of their freshness and exotic vibes.  

The idea came to life with the creation of a live terrarium, with exotic plants and moss, to bring some of the magic of nature indoors and create a reimagined miniature of Bombay’s indoor glass gardens, while adding some herbal elements that are reminiscent of the taste and scent of the Bombay Sapphire gin.

There is always magic around nature. It awakens our five senses. From ancient times, herbs were used for multiple purposes and each one has the power to reveal our sentiments. 

Copper is a live metal which breathes and transforms as years go by, but it never loses its value and preciousness like an authentic sapphire. This body of work, reimagines Bombay Sapphire’s royal essence, inspired by the herbs used in Bombay Sapphire Gin, leading to the creation of an alternative Queen Victoria crown.

The idea was sparked from the very first moment the collaboration was proposed. Inspired by the legacy of Bombay Sapphire I wanted to design a contemporary take of its image, reimagined through a playful, laid-back lens that reflects my personal style.  

Drawing from the elements of Bombay and with respect to the already existing identity, I was led to the creation of a piece that brings out the tropical essence of Bombay and at the same time leaves the viewer with a chilled vibe.
