Brockmans Gin unveils limited-edition bottle with wearable punk-inspired ring by Ling Chen

Brockmans Gin has recently released a limited-edition bottle created in collaboration with jewellery artist Ling Chen. The bottle, featuring a detachable sculptural ring designed by Chen, is available for purchase exclusively at Hedonism Wines in Mayfair. The launch forms part of Brockmans’ ongoing partnership with On|Off, a platform supporting innovation in British fashion and design.

The collaboration comprises Brockmans’ flagship gin, Intensely Smooth, encased in a bottle adorned with Chen’s Punk Sym Rings—a two-part ring from her debut jewellery collection, Rebellion Reimagined. The ring, which can be removed and worn, draws on punk iconography through mirrored spiked geometry. According to the artist, her work explores the tension between individuality and conformity, using subcultural symbols such as spikes, chains, slogans, and piercings.

Ling Chen, a graduate of Birmingham City University’s School of Jewellery, said: “I am beyond thrilled to be launching my collection at Forge in the centre of the Hatton Garden’s Jewellery community with Brockmans Gin. The properly improper philosophy of Brockmans Gin suits my punk aesthetic and my sense of direction, which I share with many of the On|Off designers.”

Jean-Dominique Andreu, Managing Director of Brockmans Gin, commented: “Brockmans Gin and Ling Chen are provocateurs in our respective worlds. We both challenge convention, celebrate creativity, and take pride in doing things differently. This collaboration was born out of a shared creative vision of bold design, disruptive spirit, and cultural expression. We’re proud to be partnering with such a fearless designer and look forward to unveiling these ultra limited-edition bottles.”

The brand, which became B Corp certified in 2023, has previously worked with On|Off on events such as its London Fashion Week Opening Party and The Disruptors exhibition at Fitzrovia Chapel.

Lee Lapthorne, Director of On|Off, praised the collaboration: “As soon as I saw Ling Chen’s work, I knew it was something special — outstanding and visually arresting. Her punk-esque attitude aligns perfectly with the ethos and spirit of Brockmans Gin.”

The limited-edition bottles, priced at £999 each, aim to appeal to collectors and design enthusiasts, offering a blend of high-end spirits and wearable art.
