Met on Faberge egg hunt after items worth 2m poached from Soho pub
"Met police say they are still trying to recover the missing Faberge egg and watch, which belong to the Craft Irish Whiskey Company. Faberge eggs are considered symbols of opulence as high-value, collectible pieces of jewellery made by the House of Faberge, a Russian company founded in 1842."
"Enzo Conticello stole the treasures from Rosie Dawson, the director of premium brands at the Craft Irish Whiskey Company, in a West End pub in November 2024, alongside some more conventional loot contained in the handbag he swiped, including her laptop and credit cards."
"Judge Griffith told him: It must have been rather a surprise to you when you saw that egg. What you did with it, I don't know at the moment, but I expect we're going to find out."
Enzo Conticello, also known as Hakim Boudjenoune, stole a Faberge egg and watch worth £2 million from Rosie Dawson at a West End pub in Soho in November 2024. The theft also included conventional items such as a laptop and credit cards from her handbag. Conticello was arrested in Belfast on 26 January and appeared at Southwark Crown Court where he admitted theft and three counts of fraud by false representation. He was remanded in custody pending sentencing on 6 March. Metropolitan Police detectives continue efforts to recover the missing Faberge egg and watch, which belong to the Craft Irish Whiskey Company. Faberge eggs are renowned worldwide as symbols of opulence and are high-value collectible pieces of jewellery manufactured by the House of Faberge, a Russian company founded in 1842.
