GF Germany - Winter/Spring 2012
Our cover feature is devoted to the “adamas” – the most noble and unyielding of all precious stones. This leads us to the legendary Duke and Duchess of Windsor and their almost 40 years of mutual passion for Cartier and the fine art of jewellery. We also turn our attention to an accessory imbued with symbols: the glove. In recent times the glove has assumed the role of an indispensable accompaniment for the fashion conscious, yet in the Middle Ages gloves played a major role in acts of signing: treaties were regarded as signed and sealed after a glove had been handed over. In line with the spirit of the season, we have not overlooked the world of fur, where fashion designers are offering a sheer inexhaustible wealth of inspiration. In this spirit too, we wish you a year 2012 brimming with inspiration and enjoyment.

Steigenberger Parkhotel<br />
With its unrivalled view on to the idyllic Hofgarten,<br />
the venerable Steigenberger Parkhotel occupies<br />
one of the finest spots on the Königsallee.<br />
Opened with great ceremony on 15 April 1904,<br />
this time-honoured luxury address is still imbued<br />
with the spirit of the Belle Époque. During the<br />
extensive renovations carried out from 1999 to<br />
2006, the interiors have acquired a striking stylistic<br />
finesse and individuality, with exquisitely printed<br />
cottons, elegant furniture in the Louis XVI style<br />
and vibrant wall colouring echoed by bold upholsteries<br />
and drapes, lending its rooms a charismatic<br />
refinement.<br />
