RIMOWA x Robbe & Berking: The Cocktail Case That Redefines Travel Luxury

2 min read

RIMOWA’s latest collaboration doesn’t involve luggage or check-in counters—but it’s no less refined. For Autumn 2025, the German maison has teamed up with fellow heritage brand Robbe & Berking to create the RIMOWA x Robbe & Berking Cocktail Case, a limited-edition bar set designed for those who believe travel and craftsmanship go hand in hand.

Founded in 1898, RIMOWA’s reputation has always rested on precision, utility and unmistakable design. That same DNA—aluminium grooves, leather handles, flawless construction—has been reimagined here for a different kind of journey. Instead of packing clothes, this case is built to carry the essentials for a perfectly mixed drink, wherever the evening leads.

It’s a meeting of German greats: RIMOWA’s mastery of durable design meets Robbe & Berking’s near 150-year legacy of silversmithing. The result is a functional, highly collectible piece that feels equally at home in a private jet cabin or on a mahogany drinks trolley. Each case is handcrafted in RIMOWA’s Cologne workshop and fitted with a custom inlay to secure every component in place, even mid-flight.

Inside, there’s no excess—just precision. Every tool has been handmade by Robbe & Berking’s artisans in northern Germany, crafted in massive silver plate and polished to a mirror finish. Highlights include a compact Cobbler Shaker, developed exclusively for this collaboration, alongside two tumblers and a jigger finished with vertical fluting that nods to RIMOWA’s signature grooves. Two coasters, a pair of silver straws, and a perfectly balanced bar spoon round out the set. Even the polishing cloth has been thought through—a final, subtle touch of functional luxury.

The RIMOWA x Robbe & Berking Cocktail Case isn’t about excess; it’s about refinement and ritual. It’s the kind of object that speaks quietly but confidently—a collector’s piece for those who value heritage, craftsmanship, and the art of doing things properly.

Launching October 30, the case will be available at RIMOWA stores worldwide and online at rimowa.com, priced at £4,310, with a limited number also available through Robbe & Berking boutiques and robbberking.com.
