What Tessitura Luigi Bevilacqua is known for
Tessitura Luigi Bevilacqua still weaves its prized soprarizzo velvet by hand on eighteenth-century looms once owned by the silk guild of the Venetian Republic, alongside damasks, brocatelles, and lampas fabrics for haute couture and historic restoration projects. The family-run showroom and shop on Santa Croce welcomes visitors by appointment to see the looms in action.
