The Art of Luxury: A Private Masterclass with Sotheby’s
On April 20th, 2026, Livingeneva hosted an exclusive morning experience in collaboration with Sotheby's: The Art of Luxury: A Private Masterclass — an intimate gathering dedicated to exceptional jewellery, iconic handbags, and the timeless world of luxury collecting.
Held at Sotheby’s Geneva from 10:00 to 12:00, the event welcomed a curated group of guests for a refined masterclass led by Diana Casalis ahead of Geneva Luxury Week. Designed as an elegant and educational encounter, the experience offered insider perspectives into the craftsmanship, rarity, and emotional value behind some of the world’s most desired luxury pieces.
A Morning Inside the World of Luxury
Set within the sophisticated atmosphere of Sotheby’s Geneva, the event brought together women passionate about jewellery, fashion, collecting, and timeless elegance.
Guests were immersed in a universe where exceptional craftsmanship met storytelling — discovering how luxury objects transcend trends to become symbols of heritage, artistry, and personal identity.
From remarkable jewellery creations to highly coveted handbags, the masterclass explored the elements that define true luxury in today’s world: rarity, savoir-faire, provenance, and enduring value.
