A history spanning over one century
A history spanning over one century
1897
It all began in 1897. Guido Lucchesi founds the family business after having done experience working on handlooms
1914
In 1914 the factory was already in its present-day site in Via Carradori, next to Piazza Macelli.
1938
After the first World War, when production was suspended due to his children in battle, Guido had the ability and the talent to increase turnover, reaching a 500-strong workforce in 1938.
A disastrous fire in the summer of the same year never stopped him from rebuilding what was lost and from leaving, four years later and during the second World War, his company to his children
1949
The Lanificio Fratelli Lucchesi faced the bombings of 1944, to be later split between Guido’s children in 1949.
Umberto, the youngest, was still of an early age when he started working in Via Carradori, and that part of the company went to him
