RIVA BOUTIQUE
Humidor € 2,200
Material : ebony and mahogany
This combination of aesthetics and function is the new plus ultra of elegance and style .
The Riva humidor is a prized object that will delight lovers of fine cigars , both on board and on shore . When it comes to wood , the creative talent of Riva ’ s master craftsmen knows no limit . The result is strong , finely textured ebony for the exterior , and Riva ’ s classic sapele mahogany for the interior . In fact , sapele mahogany is the ideal wood to maintain the humidity that is essential to enjoy the taste and aroma of fine cigars at their best . Inside , the gold-plated instruments and Riva logo bring out the honeycoloured accents in the wood , so that opening the humidor is always a new emotion .

Aquarama knife € 690.00
Among the many items traditionally associated with sailing , a sailor ’ s knife is certainly at the top of the list , still to be replaced by a digital tool .
To celebrate the materials used to create this item and its genuine , tactile value , Riva together with Saladini cutlery of Scarperia , has designed two different models , each one linked to specific eras and imageries .
One was inspired by the classic Aquarama , in wood and polished steel ; the other recalls the modern Rivamare and is made in alloy and brushed steel .
Mounted on their elegant plexiglass support , they become splendid design sculptures , ideal to furnish your home or office . Housed in their elegant leather sheath , the knives will be a precious ally on the water , for those little jobs aboard or as a safe sailing tool .
Like all the other unique and must-have items in the Riva Boutique Collection , the recommendation is : why choose ? Anyone who loves Riva will want to be the proud owner of both models .
