The back of the villa has hotel quality appeal.

Like the mechanics of Swiss watches, this garden is precise.

The 'Orangery'-- gives this ornate estate a 'not so serious' feel-- a stark contrast to the rest of the estate.

The owner of De Grisogono, a line known for their use of black diamonds, Fawaz Gruosi props himself in the arches of his rose garden.

Modern technology looks even better on a 16th century Medici table. Thank you Steve Jobs.

Florentine bed fit for a king or queen. Haaayy.
