Etern Spotify Camp Nou: a pioneering diamond collection for FC Barcelona
The Etern Spotify Camp Nou collection is a pioneering venture in both the sports licensing and diamond industries. These diamonds are created from the carbon extracted from the grass of FC Barcelona’s iconic stadium, specifically from the pitch used during the last match played at Camp Nou before its renovation. This event, held on May 28, 2023, against Mallorca, marked the end of an era for the stadium that had been home to countless historic matches since its inauguration in 1957.
This collection is not only unique but also a world first. Each diamond, meticulously crafted in the laboratory, is a symbol of the stadium’s rich history. Brilianto’s expertise ensures that these diamonds meet the highest standards of quality. The laboratory process not only replicates the natural conditions under which diamonds form but also does so in a sustainable and ethical manner, utilizing advanced technology to minimize environmental impact.
The Etern Spotify Camp Nou collection includes:
- 57 diamonds of 1 carat
- 1957 diamonds of 0.5 carats
- 1957 badges adorned with 0.10-carat diamonds
- 1957 bracelets with 0.10-carat diamonds
- 1957 pendants featuring 0.10-carat diamonds
Each piece is crafted with precision, ensuring that it not only represents a moment in FC Barcelona’s history but also offers a timeless keepsake for its fans.
Diamantes da Luz: commemorating SL Benfica’s legacy with Brilianto
In celebration of SL Benfica’s 120th anniversary, Brilianto partnered with the club to create the Diamantes da Luz collection, another shining example of their ability to merge luxury with sentiment. This collection, like the one created for FC Barcelona, draws its uniqueness from its origin—the carbon extracted from the grass of Estádio da Luz, where the club’s most glorious moments have unfolded.
SL Benfica, founded in 1904, is one of the most successful and beloved football clubs in Portugal, with a rich history and a massive global following. The Diamantes da Luz collection offers fans a rare opportunity to own a piece of this history, encapsulated in a diamond that represents the energy and spirit of the club’s iconic stadium.
The collection includes:
- 120 editions featuring a 1.00-carat diamond, accompanied by a pendant, badge, and bracelet, all crafted in 18-carat gold and enamel.
- 120 editions featuring a 0.50-carat diamond, with a similar set of high-end jewelry pieces.
- 1904 badges, each set with a 0.10-carat diamond, crafted with 18-carat gold and enamel.
This collection honors the club’s legacy and provides fans with a tangible link to its rich history. Each diamond becomes a cherished symbol filled with memories and emotions.
Pioneering a new era in sports memorabilia
What sets Brilianto’s diamond collections apart is their pioneering approach to sports memorabilia. Traditionally, sports memorabilia has included items like jerseys, autographs, or pieces of the stadium. However, Brilianto has redefined this concept by transforming the very essence of the stadium —its grass— into diamonds. This innovative approach makes these collections the first of their kind in the sports licensing and diamond industries.
Brilianto’s work represents a significant evolution in the concept of luxury sports memorabilia. By using the grass from stadiums, they create diamonds that are not only ethically sourced but also imbued with a profound connection to the clubs they represent. This fusion of luxury and sport has set a new standard, giving fans the opportunity to own a piece of their club’s history in a form that is both enduring and deeply personal.
From stadium grass to diamond: Brilianto’s unique production process
The creation of these diamonds is a meticulous process that begins with the careful collection of grass from the stadium. This grass is then carbonized in a laboratory, a process that extracts pure carbon from the organic material. The carbon is subjected to High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) conditions, which replicate the natural environment in which diamonds are formed deep within the Earth’s crust.
Once the diamond is formed, it undergoes cutting and polishing by expert gemologists, ensuring that each stone reaches its highest potential in terms of clarity, color, cut, and carat weight. The diamonds are then certified by the International Gemological Institute (IGI), a globally recognized authority in gem certification, and each comes with a certificate of authenticity that details its unique origin.
Moreover, these diamonds are accompanied by a Non-Fungible Token (NFT), providing a digital record of the diamond’s journey from the stadium to the customer. This NFT not only serves as proof of authenticity but also offers additional content and exclusive rewards, further enhancing the value of each piece. Brilianto’s NFT platform offers diamond owners exclusive access to unique content and experiences tied to their gem’s NFT. Built on advanced blockchain technology, the platform meets the highest security standards, adhering to the strictest current and upcoming EU regulations. This ensures that each diamond’s authenticity is safeguarded while providing owners with a deeper connection to their gem’s unique story.
Expanding horizons: Brilianto’s future in football and beyond
Brilianto’s success with FC Barcelona and SL Benfica has created new opportunities for growth. In addition to its sports-based collections, the company is now expanding into new areas within the diamonds with soul concept. Brilianto will continue to create collections that not only capture the essence of legendary stadiums but also reflect other significant origins and moments in history.
This expansion reinforces Brilianto’s commitment to innovation and excellence. By pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the diamond and sports memorabilia sectors, and venturing into new areas, Brilianto is not only setting new standards but also creating timeless pieces that resonate with enthusiasts worldwide.
A legacy of passion, craftsmanship, and innovation
Brilianto’s collaborations represent a fusion of passion, craftsmanship, and innovation. These collections are not just about diamonds. They are about capturing the essence of football, preserving its history, and offering fans a tangible connection to the clubs they love. Each diamond is a testament to Brilianto’s expertise and their commitment to creating pieces with a soul, jewels that will be cherished for generations to come.
