The shop has existed since 1870 and in 1920, after the Great War, it was taken over by his grandfather Giulio Riggio. Then, for example, twine, rosolium and bergamot essence, loose brilliantine, and nibs were sold; men purchased everything they needed for personal care, from satins to razor blades and shaving cream. Even sweets on holidays, the cassata kept in a glass case. After her sons Giuseppe, Enrico and Rocco, Carlo took over and led her in the spirit of knowledge and quality. Over a hundred years the market has specialized, just remember lighters and pipes with prestigious names, sophisticated tobaccos. Now the fourth generation begins with young sons Giulio and Andrea.
