Quercioli & Lucherini Merceria: A Fine Florentine Shop for Intimate Apparel

Quercioli & Lucherini Merceria has been keeping the hearts and souls of Florentines warm for over a century. Located on the Via Porta Rossa 45r just steps away from the Mercato Nuovo, this store was founded in 1895 and began as a “merceria.”

Originally, mercerie were places that sold sewing notions, everything from buttons and thread, to zippers and ribbons. However, over time as sewing became less of a necessity and more of a past time, new products were added to these stores’ inventories. Now, like most mercerie in Italy, Quercioli & Lucherini is best known as a purveyor of high quality intimate apparel for men, women and children.

If you are looking for a cotton and wool blend camisole to keep the chill away or a beautiful pair of wool stockings, this is the place to visit. One of the many name brands that Quercioli & Lucherini carry is Cosabella. This brand is well known in the United States, because the Italian Campello family that owns the company is headquartered in Miami, Florida, but produces all of their merchandise in Italy.

So, if fine intimate apparel or a sewing needle and spool of thread are what you need, stop by Quercioli & Lucherini and the helpful sales staff are ready to assist you.
