The iconic Italian boating brand Riva has launched an online store featuring a range of luxury accessories to complement its maritime heritage, dubbed the “Riva Brand Experience”.
“Riva inside, inside Riva” is the philosophy behind the range, which includes pieces of furniture to adorn the home as well as clothing, accessories and a book, ‘Riva Corsa: The Origin of the Myth’.
The result of a collaboration with TRIBOO, all the items for sale on the site are made with the highest quality materials and meticulous attention to detail, says Riva, and are “designed for those who love the timeless elegance and distinctive design of the legendary Riva yachts.
The company’s latest hardback publication, ‘Riva Corsa: The Origin of the Myth’, looks at how Carlo Riva’s father Serafino won an impressive series of victories and titles as well as set a number of records in the field of boat racing, starting in the 1930s. This led to the shipyard making a name for itself as “the best builder of outboard racing boats”. Featuring 200 images, many of which have never been seen before, across 167 pages, the book is available for a purchase price of €90.
Another highlight of the Riva Boutique range include ‘Riva, lo stile Italiano’, a hardback book featuring stunning images of Riva’s 33 models from some of the world’s leading yacht photographers, priced at €65.
A number of items of furniture are also for sale on the new website, including stools, chairs, tables and a stunning table lamp inspired by the classic ‘search light’ featured on the 1960s Rivas, priced at €1,300. Branded clothing and accessories are also must-buy gifts for any Riva enthusiast, from polo shirts and peaked caps to elegant silk scarves.
