MIAMI, 2023年3月16日 – Regent Seven Seas Cruises®, the world’s leading luxury ocean cruise line, and Fabergé, the globally revered jewelry Maison, have collaborated to create two new Spotlight Voyages. The two special sailings will bring guests into the world of Fabergé with small group master-class programs, exclusive access to unique and intimate shore-side tours, jeweled egg demonstrations and fascinating lectures and screenings.
Additionally, there is also the option to book a special pre-cruise land program in London which includes a visit to the Fabergé headquarters, an exclusive shopping experience in Harrods, private viewing of the royal portraits in Westminster Abbey and more.
The two spotlight sailings, both hosted by the highest of authorities on the Fabergé story, will be on Seven Seas Splendor’s® 2023年6月13日, 10-night sailing through Northern Europe, hosted by Archduke Dr. Géza von Habsburg, and on new ship Seven Seas Grandeur’s 2024年7月1日, 10-night sailing around the Mediterranean, hosted by Sarah Fabergé.
“We pride ourselves on offering our guests immersive and culturally enlightening itineraries as well as enriching onboard programming,” said Andrea DeMarco, President of Regent Seven Seas Cruises. “We are excited to reveal details about our first of two Spotlight on Fabergé sailings, inspired by the allure of the world-renowned Fabergé Maison. Guests will uncover the rich culture and history of the revered brand, enjoying an unforgettable, unrivaled experience that they know to expect from Regent.”
“We are delighted to be able to join Regent aboard their beautiful ships and are very much looking forward to showcasing some of the most enthralling details from Fabergé’s story,” said Josina von dem Bussche-Kessell, Creative Director at Fabergé. “We have put together a captivating program, which will offer unique behind the scenes insights into the art of bespoke jewelery design, Fabergé’s cultured history and royal connections, and also showcase a selection of treasures from our current collections.”
