Silvia Damiani, Vice President Damiani Group, Has Just Issued the Following Statement for Immediate Release:
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- "We have received a tremendous amount of questions and many kind concerns regarding the theft that occurred in our Milan showroom this past Sunday. We are very appreciative of all of the concerns we have received from many parts of the world. My brothers Guido and Giorgio and I thank you. The amount of Jewelry taken from our Milan Showroom on Sunday is still being determined. We have very excellent insurance companies that we work with and we are fully covered by our insurance partners which are Lloyds of London and Group Allianz. We were hosting a reception in our Milan Showroom and we had VIP guests visiting. Of course our main concern was both for our employees and guests' safety. No one was injured or hurt and we are most grateful. My Brother Giorgio and I were in Los Angeles with many of the Damiani Masterpiece collections for the Oscars and are happy that these one-of-a-kind pieces were with us and are not in the robbers' hands. We are especially happy that Tilda chose to wear our Sahara cuff and it was with us on this trip as it is a signature piece from the Masterpiece collection. It was truly an honor to have Tilda Swinton wear our cuff for her Oscar win! We again thank you for your most kind concerns."
