Bombay Sapphire, the world's leading premium gin, has inspired three prominent names in luxury and design - Baccarat, Garrard and Karim Rashid - to create Revelation, five handmade crystal bottles individually decorated with sapphires and diamonds.
Recognised around the world for its striking translucent blue bottle, Bombay Sapphire has showcased the world's finest glass creations for the last 20 years.
The Bombay Sapphire Prize is the world's biggest annual glass award and the Bombay Sapphire Designer Glass Competition is one of the top design contests for emerging designers.
Created by one of the hottest designers in the world, Karim Rashid, each of the five Revelation bottles has been handcrafted in France by Baccarat, the pre-eminent creator of the world's finest luxury crystal.
The bottle has been cut into the shape of a giant gemstone with 10 principal facets, representing the 10 botanical ingredients used to create the complex and refined taste of Bombay Sapphire.
Each Revelation bottle is truly unique with its own individually designed stopper decorated with sapphires and diamonds set by the oldest jewellery house in the world, Garrard.
Reflecting the global popularity of Bombay Sapphire, the limited edition Revelation bottles will be launched at five major international airport locations - starting with London Heathrow airport on March 27th, to coincide with the opening of the new terminal five, and subsequently New York, Dubai, Singapore and Sydney.
One Revelation bottle will be exhibited at each of the five international airports for two to three months before being securely transported to its new owner anywhere in the world.
Profits from Revelation will benefit the travel retail industry's chosen charity, The Smile Train, which provides life-enhancing cleft surgery to children in poor countries.
