Observe the master artisans of Serapian showcasing their craftsmanship in an intimate studio space. When Stefano Serapian brought Mosaico to life in 1947, he created a speciality so unique that it would become one of the maison's hallmarks. Strips of lamb nappa are delicately handwoven together by expert craftsmen to create an eye-catching graphic pattern that is a true emblem of the maison’s virtuosity and of the ‘Made in Italy’ tradition.
