Assouline Coffee Table Book: Riva Aquarama – 60 Years of Italian Icon
The Assouline Coffee Table Book "Riva Aquarama" is a luxurious tribute to one of the most famous boats in the world – the Riva Aquarama. Designed by legendary Italian boat designer Carlo Riva, the Aquarama represents pure Italian style and the dolce vita spirit of the 1960s. With its sleek mahogany body, gleaming chrome details, and signature robin’s egg-blue and cream upholstery, the Aquarama is a true design masterpiece and a symbol of glamour and high style on the seas.
Beloved by movie stars, royalty, and public figures like Brigitte Bardot, Elizabeth Taylor, and Monaco’s royal family, the Riva Aquarama quickly achieved cult status. With only 760 boats ever made, and around 650 still in existence today, it remains a coveted collector’s item. But more than just a luxury piece, the Aquarama is a symbol of freedom, elegance, and the realization of a dream.
In this stunning volume, Michael Verdon, marine and aviation editor of Robb Report, tells the story of this iconic boat and brings its dolce vita charm to life. The special edition of this book is presented in a luxury mahogany box, reflecting the beauty of the boat’s hull, offering collectors and enthusiasts a piece of the Riva dream.
