This afternoon I had the good fortune and privilege to visit one of the most fascinating places of Florence thanks to my friend Frank Carrozza. No, not a monument, although in existence since 1947, but a workshop of fabrics, Tessilarte . than 60 years of life for a small company founded by the passion of Camerino Jacks Victoria since 1970 and continued by his daughter with love Paola Martinetti Graziano , architect. To assist a team, all-girl! Raw materials and fabrics are products in Italy and all the labor associated to embroidery and packaging is primarily Tuscan. With its endless creativity Paola offers a laundry for the
home (sheets, tablecloths, towels, cushion covers and small objects) in the innovative design and modern colors that range from white to shades on even more combined together for a are amazing. Linen, cotton, satin, enriched by precious embroideries still made by hand, and dedicated to those who wish only surrounded by beautiful things and of high quality. An exciting example of infinite love and passion for the tradition, albeit with an eye toward the future and the artisan culture which for centuries has been particularly proud of the land in Florence. And for those who want to learn how to work the loom, her friend Pat Kinsella is ready to fulfill your desire to teach this as this fascinating art that many more may now disappear.
