Luxury menswear brand Berluti has teamed up with auction house Sotheby’s to present “The Art of Craftsmanship” sale. The themed auction features a rare collection of 14 lots, each pay tribute to the pillars of Berluti’s heritage.

Highlights of the auction include a track-only Triumph Bonneville T120 with saddle seat and handlebar grips covered in supple Vitello Fiore leather, a BMX bike built by St Martin and a Hublot Classic Fusion chronograph 45 mm with Berluti leather strap. Musicians may be interested in the Fender Telecaster guitar with leather case and a leather encased amplifier once showcased on the 2017 fall runway. There are also the oh-so-French petanque set with beach bag, table football and a unique football signed by Manchester United and the French national team footballer Paul Pogba for charity. The online auction is now open for bidding until 7 May.
