Stogie K

This godfather of the movie industry is the natural patriarch of the de Grisogono Crazymals family. While the oasis of Palm Springs comes right into the living room through its large French windows, a figurine with a unique, deliberately dishevelled appearance studded with brown diamonds and pink sapphires, smokes a fat stogie made of rose gold set with orange sapphires.

Lady Flamingo – Life in flamingo pink

A Gocce rose gold pendant hangs from her ear. She reveals a slender figure in a dress set with 239 precious stones and her high boots are carved in rose gold. Ready to dive into the turquoise swimming pool at Twin Palms with her golden flippers, she loves to sip a Sea Breeze accompanied by pink shrimp.

Buddy. Alias Movember – Moustache sex appeal.

He actually looks good in anything, including the electric-blue nuances of an amethyst suit. This sex symbol carries off his moustache superbly and with great generosity, as an emblem of his undeniable virility. Didn’t his mobile ink-coloured moustache made of black diamonds inspire the Movember movement? An unparalleled stuntman, he keeps fit and has a sturdy body in rose gold. The king of balance is also a great showman.
Nobody within reach of his tentacles can resist him.

Great Ladybug

Perched like a diadem on top of her head and shining in the middle of her face are tiny onyx balls. Across spread wings of red sapphires and diamonds, her soul floats above the most iconic letters in the world – a tribute to her unparalleled record of Oscars.

With a head-turning blue sapphire cap, hipster beard and deep voice, he does not go unnoticed. An imposing figure distinguished by his stature and his obvious immoderation. On his body, he bears tattoos of black and white diamonds beneath a diamond silk shirt.
