The Color of an Icon
A special collaboration between Bio Sculpture and Mount Nelson, a Belmond Hotel
Some colors are more than just a color. They tell a story.
At the foot of Cape Town’s imposing Table Mountain lies the iconic
Mount Nelson Hotel. A place where history, elegance, and
hospitality have come together for over a century.
In 1918, at the end of World War I, the hotel was given its distinctive pink facades. A color that symbolized peace and a new beginning.
Ever since then, this distinctive shade of pink has been inextricably linked to the identity of the Mount Nelson, affectionately known as “The Nellie.”
A Color with a History
For over a century, Mount Nelson has been welcoming guests from
all over the world. Behind its famous pink facades lie countless
stories, ranging from extraordinary encounters to historic
moments.
The soft, warm pink color became a recognizable
symbol of the hotel. A color that not only defines its look,
but also tells a story.
Two worlds, one special collaboration
Inspired by this rich history, Bio Sculpture and Mount Nelson joined forces.
The result is *The Colour of an Icon*, an exclusive nail polish in a
refined blush-pink shade, inspired by the iconic facades of the
hotel.
A collaboration that brings together beauty, attention to detail, and timeless
elegance come together.
Beauty That Goes Beyond Color
At Bio Sculpture, we believe that beauty is more than just
appearances. It’s about quality, care, and attention to the smallest details.
Our partnership with Mount Nelson reflects that same appreciation
for refinement and craftsmanship.
With *The Colour of an Icon*, a piece of history takes on a new
form. An elegant nail polish that carries with it the story of a special place
.
