Regular price £15.99 GBP Sale

Italy was badly affected at the end of World War II
The people lacked means of transport or the financial means to acquire and maintain full-sized four-wheeled vehicles.
 
So in 1947, the inventor of the Vespa, came up with the idea of building a light three-wheeled commercial vehicle to power Italy's economical reconstruction
The very first Ape model was mechanically a Vespa with two wheels added to the rear, with a flat-bed structure on top of the rear axle. It has been in continuous production since then.
 
And did you know that the name ‘Ape” refers to the work ethic of this vehicle - as "ape" in Italian means "bee”.
 
Please note: Due to the hand-crafted nature of the Enamel mug each product will differ slightly and is expected to contain light defects such as dimples, colour blemishes and black dots. These are all classed as acceptable defects and should be considered before purchasing.

Hand wash only and immediately dry thoroughly as rust spots may occur. This is an inherent characteristic of enamel mugs.
