Legatoria Piazzesi (Piazzesi Bookbindery)
Campiello della Feltrina, San Marco
Venice, September 2013

“Piazzesi Bookbindery was born in Venice in 1851. No other similar enterprise is known at the time or before Piazzesi’s start in the Western World. Piazzesi is now renovating itself, in order to keep up with the times, but it’s not changing, remaining in the same place where it was founded over 145 years ago, and keeping its unique atmosphere, full of history, culture, elegance, simplicity, refinement, genuinity. It’s inimitable and bound to last in time, because of the total superiority of the quality of its well known products and the matchless spirit that moves it and marks it.” (The Piazzesi Bookbindery is the First ‘Paper Shop’ in Europe, Antica Legatoria Piazzesi)
