Perched on cliffs, the centuries-old villages of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore are renowned for their steeply terraced vineyards that overlook the Mediterranean landscape.
The exterior of this extraordinary automobile boasts a deep, luxurious Ligurian Blue finish, accentuated by a meticulously hand-applied double coachline in Navy Blue and Jasmine.

The rear doors feature exquisite grape-branch embroidery, an intricate design composed of 9,215 stitches created using two different techniques.
But the grape motif doesn’t end there. It continues as an intricate inlay on the picnic tables, crafted from stainless steel and gold plating.

The attention to detail is exceptional; the surfaces were painted in Milori Blue with a subtle sparkle, providing depth and vibrancy.
Skilled artisans then applied the inlays by hand, sealing them with clear lacquer and meticulously hand-polishing them to achieve a seamless finish.
