Genco Berk’s DeLight humidor

Genco Berk’s DeLight humidor draws upon the design of ancient Chinese coins.

Austria-based architect and interior designer Genco Berk put deep thought into his DeLight humidor (www.genco-berk-design.com), a $4,400 desktop accessory that holds as many as 80 cigars. Berk based the DeLight—his first humidor design—on ancient Chinese coins that are round with a square cutout. Berk says the square symbolizes Earth and the round exterior represents heaven. He considers cigars to be earthly products that yield heavenly experiences; thus the DeLight’s delightful design. – From Robb Report

    we have seen the humidor which is a vague copy!
    a copy by hermes – the quality i sridicolous the
    production cost in china – weixing next to shanghai where the factory is located are around 15 dollar !!!
    and thats also the quality !
    the hinges are rough and cheap chromed ( 0,80 cents !)
    the lacker is quickly handmade far away from a chinese hand lacker image
    the edges are all irregular !
    the veneer cheap its a product to cheat and betray people!
    5 th
    mr genco otzampak ( this name is in the passport this name is registered in austria , )
    he is no where in the world registered as an designer neither architect – he does not belong to any union neither has a personal insurance via a institution –

    the object is a vague idea to cheat and make some money if you think 300 time 4000 dollars a nice idea – but it doesn work out – rich people with and without taste do know to make a difference between quality or trash

    if you go to the websites – non of the informations are right –
    no employer at ! all there is no office adress available –
    as he told us himself most of his personal money expenses is paid by his father -

    sorry for the comment but we want mr genco B or O what ever name he like to use in the different situation
    to be honest and not cheat and bother people !
    to many companies and to many persons girls where cheated bothered betrayed !

    best terry hang –
    shanghai

    Mr. Hang,

    You’re absolutely and 100% incorrect, Gengo Berk was born in Istanbul, Turkey and grew up in Germany and yes has a German passport as a result but Genco Ozampak is Gengo Berk.
    This is not a fake! Were did you get this information?
