Elegance is transformed into tangible emotion. There are encounters that arise by chance and become perfect harmonies. This is what happened between Riccardo Ferro, a craftsman from Imperia, originally from Turin, active throughout the Riviera, and with his impeccable style, and the Maison Luxe Aura Monte-Carlo, a symbol of beauty that combines science, soul and luxury. Their collaboration has resulted in an exclusive box, created to hold Luxe Aura products like authentic jewellery - an object that embodies the very essence of Italian elegance and craftsmanship.
The master of detail
With over ten years of experience in nautical and automotive interiors, Riccardo Ferro represents the excellence of contemporary Italian craftsmanship. Born and raised in Turin, he combines the precision of industrial design with the poetry of manual labour, creating fine leather, faux leather and fabric products that combine aesthetics and functionality, remaining entirely eco-sustainable! His philosophy is clear and profound: “Only genuine love for the craft can produce excellent and lasting results.” Each of his creations tells a story of passion, dedication and respect for the material. An invisible signature can be recognised in every seam: that of time, care and tradition.
Luxe Aura Monte-Carlo: beauty as philosophy
Born from a shared dream of Elena Magnino and Daniel Vicari, Luxe Aura Monte-Carlo is much more than a cosmetics brand: it is a poem made of science, passion and dedication. Monte-Carlo, cradle of elegance and refinement, is the place where a vision takes shape that bridges the gap between luxury aesthetics and dermatological efficacy. Luxe Aura offers a multi-sensory experience in which each product becomes part of a daily ritual of well-being and awareness. “Every skin deserves the best, every person a moment of authentic luxury.” “Luxe”, from French, evokes elegance and refinement; “Aura”, from Latin, recalls atmosphere and light. Together, they give rise to a philosophy of conscious and sustainable beauty, where luxury is intertwined with responsibility and respect for the world around us.
The box set: one object, one experience
For Luxe Aura Monte-Carlo, Riccardo Ferro created a impeccably styled box set, designed to create an authentic wow effect. The natural wood frame, covered in high-quality black leather, is embellished with a golden plaque engraved with the Luxe Aura Monte-Carlo logo - a symbol of timeless elegance and refinement. Inside, four of the brand's iconic products are encased like precious gems. An object that not only contains, but transforms beauty into an aesthetic and sensory experience, merging art, design and sentiment.
A symbol of culture, elegance and solidarity
The box set was presented for the first time during the fundraising evening for the Munich Book Fair, held at the Automobile Club de Monacoan event celebrating culture, creativity and craftsmanship excellence. Recently, it was also the star of the soirée blanche organised by Femme Leaders Monaco, a charity event in support of the San Patrignano Foundation. Here too, Luxe Aura's Coffret L Étoile was a great success. A further confirmation of how beauty, when born of authentic values, can be transformed into an act of solidarity and sharing.
Conclusion
With this creation, Luxe Aura Monte-Carlo and Riccardo Ferro sign an encounter between art, beauty and soul. A dialogue made of precious materials, aesthetic vision and authentic values, where luxury is not appearance, but experience, emotion and memory. True luxury is that which leaves a discreet, profound and unforgettable mark.
