DONATION:
Seven centuries ago, Marco Polo — was a man who dared to traverse the unknown and redefine the boundaries of human understanding.
Beretta proudly dedicates its annual one-off to Marco Polo’s life and legacy with a bespoke creation: a one-of-a-kind firearm crafted on the legendary SO6 EELL Sparviere over & under 12-gauge platform.
"A Legacy of Exploration, A Testament to the Wild.” Breathtaking engraved scenes capture the essence of Marco Polo's life.
The left sideplate portrays Venice, Marco Polo’s hometown, where his journey began and ended; The right sideplate transports us to the Mongolian steppes, where Marco Polo ventured into the grandeur of Asian landscapes, architecture, and culture.
The forend release button bares a Chinese inscription that translates to "Uniting Europe and Asia as two parts of a single gem".
This poetic sentiment reflects Marco Polo’s role in bridging two worlds, celebrating the unity of cultures and the shared beauty of our global heritage.

Italian master leatherworkers create every bespoke case from scratch, from the wooden frame to the application of interior and exterior fabric, from stitching to pyrography and painting.
