Less than a month after De Grisogono filed for bankruptcy in Switzerland, where it is headquartered, its U.S. division has followed suit.
In a Chapter 7 filing made Feb. 10 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, the brand listed its assets at an estimated $1 million to $10 million and its liabilities between $10 million and $50 million.
The attorney listed for De Grisogono on the filing did not respond to a request for comment from National Jeweler by press time.
De Grisogono had a boutique in New York, located on Madison Avenue in Manhattan.Retailers such as Saks Fifth Avenue, Westime and London Jewelers also carried the brand in the United States, according to its website.
De Grisogono USA is wholly owned by its parent company, the luxury jeweler known for its high-end creations, celebrity clientele and star-studded party at the Cannes Film Festival.
The brand filed for bankruptcy in Switzerland late last month after failing to find a buyer.
