A 16th-century classical manor house on the shores of Lake Como!

Located on the shores of Lake Como in Italy, this 16th-century manor house, called Villa Balbiano, is more than 400 years old and was the asset of Aldo Gucci, the second generation of the Gucci family (the eldest son of the founder Guccio and the descendant of the most dedicated Gucci brand).

Location: Lake Como in Italy has always been a resort for the rich, and the daughter of India's richest man has previously held an engagement ceremony at another hotel, Villa d'Este Hotel.

When it comes to this, I have to talk about this again, Yang Ying Angela Baby's former Hong Kong girlfriend Wen Yongshan also held a century wedding at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo on Lake Como.

▲ Remember that after the big wedding of Huang Xiaoming and AB, the wedding of AB's good girlfriend was more beautifully arranged;

Originally known as Villa Balbiano, the House of Gucci was first the property of the Italian aristocratic family Giovio, and later to Cardinals ToloMeo and Angelo, in short, it has been the home of cardinals for centuries, and you can make up for the picture of its former glory, all kinds of celebrities coming to this party.

Today, the estate is one of the largest private residences on Lake Como, covering an area of 12,140 m², with an outdoor swimming pool, a private marina and a boathouse in addition to a detached villa!

The standard feature of the old money house is a private dock: it is convenient for you to take a yacht from Lake Como directly to your home.

And inside this garden is also highly recognized by the British Garden Designers Association Oh ~

The most amazing thing is that the owner has turned to the French interior designer Jacques Garcia, who once renovated the Royal Apartment of Versailles and created the French furniture of the Louvre from the 17th and 18th centuries!

The main palace has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, all renovated by him, and the colors are biased towards the strong style of the court, and each room is very different (it feels inexplicably in line with the works of Gucci's creative director Alessandro Michele!). ）

The master bedroom is a very colorful appearance, with a variety of silk red beds, red roses and dark colors of carved home.

The rooms are in a small fresh style, and you can see that the designers have deliberately preserved a lot of antique furniture and renovated the walls.

The bathrooms are made of Italian marble and other high-end features from start to finish, allowing you to soak in the tranquil scenery of Lake Como while taking a dip.

The interior also houses a large collection of rare treasures from Christie's and Sotheby's, with the most exquisite artwork and classical furniture to give you a glimpse of the history of that era! SOS, I really have the story of the Victorian melancholy aristocrats and deacons popping up in my head...

Visit here to experience the museum's collection of period furniture, antiques and paintings, further enhanced by crystal chandeliers, shiny gold decorations and antique gilded mirrors, as well as 17th-century frescoes by the Recchi brothers and Agostino Silva on the walls.

The indoor swimming pool is also superb, and this classical atmosphere is really the effect that Bulgari can't achieve with a few Roman walls.

The manor is perfect for weddings, and Ben Bao was completely amazed by the previous wedding video here (that's the one at the beginning), it's really a "lifetime" series! I highly recommend that you look at the official gallery, each one is beautiful.

The bloody family history behind the top luxury cards

The "Gucci House" movie mentioned at the beginning, as well as this mysterious manor, are inseparable from the history of the Gucci family's dog blood! As for all this, it has to start at the beginning of the 20th century.

Guccio Gucci, born in Florence, Italy, worked at the Savoy Hotel, a luxury hotel in London, England, at the age of about 18, when he was just a humble elevator attendant.

▲ Savoy Hotel opened in the early 19th century, it is the earliest luxury hotel in the United Kingdom, when it first opened it has a lot of advanced equipment, such as electric lights, elevators, etc., French celebrity chef Auguste Escoffier and Ritz's founder Cesar Ritz are from here;

Although he was only a grassroots employee in the top hotels of his time, Guccio was able to see all kinds of upper-class people and learn about their lifestyles, such as seeing high-class people staying in hotels with leather suitcases printed with the initials of their guests, so he realized that leather goods were a sign of affluence, especially in the British handbag HJ Cave & Sons.

▲ Guccio must not have imagined that the luxury hotel where he was an elevator clerk would design suites in cooperation with his own Gucci brand 100 years later;

After earning some money, Guccio returned to his native Italy to marry his sweetheart Aida, and soon had his first daughter, followed by three sons— Aldo, Vasco, and Rudolf.

During the First World War, Guccio chose to start a business, he joined a high-quality leather goods production company, and patiently started from apprenticeship, fully mastered every aspect of leather goods production technology and business, after the war he resolutely opened his own store in the local area "House of Gucci".

Guccio was determined to do only the business of the rich, so he only hired the best Florentine craftsmen to make all kinds of leather goods, from suitcases and handbags, to small belts, key chains, etc., at that time it was one of the best leather goods brands, attracting many upper-class guests, and by the 1970s, Gucci had become famous all over the world.

However, during Guccio's own lifetime, he was reluctant to let Gucci become a large-scale brand all over the world, but hoped to honestly focus on Italy, but his three sons were not happy, and they wanted to carry Gucci forward and open stores from Europe to North America.

After the death of the founder Guccio at the age of 71, there was no reasonable distribution of family assets, and his intention was to divide the brand equity equally among the male descendants of the family, which was obviously unreasonable, because everyone paid an equal amount of labor.

Brothers broke down unequally divided their inheritance

Among the three sons, the most interested in the Gucci brand is the eldest son, Aldo, who first participated in the company's operation, made outstanding contributions to branding and marketing, symbolized wealth and privilege, the Gucci classic "GG" trademark and bamboo bag are from his hand, just said Villa Balbiano is his house.

In addition, the second vasco and the third Rudolph have no sense of business, so Guccio's equal division of equity is not fair to them, so the relationship between the three is also split. The eldest brother Aldo and the third brother Rudolf first jointly kicked the second brother Vasco out of the game, and then refused to share the shares to the eldest sister of the family.

Both sons have their own children, and originally each held a safe and happy life, but having children is different, and they have to fight for the interests of their descendants, so the dispute between the 3rd generation of the Gucci family began.

The son personally sent his father to prison

After the death of his second son, Vasco, Aldo and Rudolph bought out vasco's widow, each holding 50 percent of the company's shares, and the eldest brother Ordo divided 10 percent of the shares equally among his three sons, while Rudolf did not give any shares in the company to his only son, Moriggio.

▲ The scene of the family members tearing X name in the movie;

Aldo's younger son Paul is more ambitious, originally wanted to "seek power and usurp the throne" and finally failed, he ran out of the independent portal, or used the family name, created his own "Paul Gucci" brand, by his father Aldo in time to find, through legal proceedings to prevent the launch of the brand.

On the other hand, he also fired his youngest son Paul from his job at the Gucci Group, and as a result, the child was resentful, and in a fit of rage, he handed over the evidence of his father Aldo's long-term tax evasion to the government and personally sent his 81-year-old father to prison.

The ex-wife bought a murderous gun to kill Gucci's descendants

Although Moriggio, the son of the third Rudolf, was threatened by his father that he would not share a penny in the family's assets, he has justifiably taken over 50% of Gucci since his father's death.

▲ The male protagonist of the movie "Gucci House" plays three generations of Maurizio;

Later, he also introduced the famous venture capital and management company Investcorp into the brand, bought out 50% of the shares of the Big Berthordo father and son, and became the sole controller of the Gucci family's shares!

Didn't expect it, the winner in the end was actually him?

Nonono, although Moriggio became Gucci's biggest boss, but because of his extravagant and fun-loving life, he later ran away from home for the object of the affair, and chose to divorce his wife Patricia, who had married him earlier, saying that he would pay alimony of $500,000 a year, which caused his wife's resentment.

▲ In the movie, Lady Gaga plays Morizio's wife Patrizia Reggiani, who was originally the daughter of a truck driver, and Moriggio married her despite her family's opposition, ending in tragedy;

In 1993, due to Maurizio's various decision-making mistakes, Gucci came to the brink of bankruptcy. Shareholders voted him out of the board, and Moriggio sold his entire stake to Investcorp for $170 million, meaning Gucci would never belong to the Gucci family again.

Two years later, on a sparse and mundane day, Moriggio was shot twice on the road and killed, hired by his ex-wife Patricia, although she was sentenced to 29 years in prison and dubbed "Black Widow" by foreign media.
