Cabouxon Luxury, a luxury gifts store, offers upscale gift ideas for any occasion.

“For four generations, it has been our family tradition to showcase and sell luxury items and antiques, including jewellery, silverware, antique furniture and paintings,” says Daniel Azzopardi. “We are also renowned for the Maltese Silver Collection, a brand of high-end Maltese silver pieces which we craft locally in our workshops.”

Cabouxon Luxury combines high-end items, wedding gifts and fine arts into one business concept, operating under one name.

“We have recently seen increased interest in weddings-related business such as wedding lists, diamond jewellery and rings,” he says. “We also have a good customer base of collectors sourcing quality antique items and others who are interested in the Maltese Silver Collection.”

Silver pieces make for a valuable gift, as there is something for everyone’s budget. However, antiques are also a good investment.

“Antiques have always been and remain a good investment,” Azzopardi says. “What has changed is the clients’ approach to selecting antiques. Nowadays, clients are more knowledgeable and selective – this is why we offer a professional approach in how we deal in antiques and fine arts. We also invest a lot in research – in fact, we research the history of every item before it is sold. This has also enabled us to enhance our expertise, which is also recognised internationally.”

Cabouxon Luxury also offers restoration consultation.

“This is a very important aspect in our business as whoever invests in an antique item wants to restore it to its former glory,” he says. “We specialise in the restoration of antique silver items, jewellery and furniture and have been entrusted to restore some of the most priceless items in Malta.”
