Does that special someone in your life love the thrill of shaking a package, gingerly untying a silky ribbon, carefully removing crisp wrapping paper and slowly lifting the lid of a box—as if the act of opening a present were an erotic dance? Robb Report has tapped some of the most rarefied names in luxury goods to ensure the climax will be anything but disappointing.
From a one-of-a-kind necklace by the peerless sculptor Alexander Calder to a pair of elegant Delage automobiles—one from 1938, the other the marque’s first production car in nearly 70 years—these objects are nothing short of spectacular. Apologies in advance: We realize the Tankoa superyacht will require quite a few yards of ribbon.
