Why do luxury car makers branch out into so many different areas, and who buys their non-car products? The Aston Martin picnic basket is a handmade lunch carrier.
Designed by Robin Coleman, the Aston Martin picnic basket looks like a leather saddle. Each individual saddle takes two craftsmen 28 hours to make. It looks like a very uncomfortable thing to carry around but I guess it's meant to be placed on one of the seats of your Aston Martin.
