Grazia Giachi

Grazia Giachi a FirenzeSome of the finest hand-embroidered linens in Florence can be found at Grazia Giachi on Via Borgognissanti 37/39r. Named after the woman who owns it, Grazia Giachi has recently changed location. The newly open floor space is filled with linens for bed, bath and table, finely sewn clothing for children and young adults and beautifully handcrafted lingerie. The shop also comes with a story of family tradition.

Grazia Giachi found her passion for hand embroidery at the age of eight. She was taught by her mother and grandmother and has passed down the knowledge and skill to her own daughter, Angela. Grazia has worked all her life and runs a workshop in Chianti, where each piece is delicately assembled with attention to detail, color and design. Items are ordered by clients from all over the world and can be personalized upon request.

The creations in the shop, made from cotton, silk and linen, are traditional works of art that honor the past while moving forward into the future. Each piece is produced by experienced hands, preserving a lost art. To take home a memory, visit the store from 10 am – 7 pm, Tues. – Sat., or make an appointment to see the workshop.
