The building was completed in 2003 and is known for its distinctive shape and innovative design. It was developed by Swiss Re, an insurance company, as their London headquarters. The Gherkin is considered a modern architectural landmark in the city.
A gherkin wrapped in ham is commonly referred to as a "ham and gherkin roll" or "ham-wrapped gherkin."
