the brand

A Tuscan story

Due Toscani is an artisanal family business based in the textile district of Prato and established by two generations of knitwear specialists over a span of 50 years.

To make our 100% cashmere products, we produce our cashmere recycled yarns ourselves.

The production of yarns and garments is made exclusively in Tuscany.

Our experience and strategic location are key assets to deliver quality products and services, courtesy and information while remaining competitive and reliable.

 

The family

Federico and Almudena

Federico Scatizzi began working in the world of the textile industry at the age of just fifteen, as the Prato tradition of the “cenciaiolo” dictates. An ambitious trader, he later specialized in importing fine wool from Argentina and Australia. At the age of thirty, Federico was introduced to knitwear in the family knitwear factory, where he remained for ten years before becoming a private label bespoke entrepreneur himself. The tale of Two Tuscans was born after other long years of experience, when Almudena Quintela, a designer, decided to put her husband’s in-depth knowledge of raw materials and local workers at the service of a sparkling, dynamic and completely familiar brand.

What do we offer

Personalization

For each knitwear item, Due Toscani provides buyers with a detailed showcase of the article, accompanied by a size chart, a colour chart and a yarn chart, with the possibility of a complete personalization.

 Customer care

We are available with a 24/7 assistance via email and telephone, providing a professional one-to-one customer service and answering every need and question.

Flexibility and reliability

Due Toscani is a luxury brand with roots in the toll-manufacture. Our job has always been tailor made and detail-oriented, even on very small quantities, aimed at providing top-quality yarns and craftsmen.

OUR TOPDOWN KNITWEAR

with a unique feature:

it is seamless!

Most of Due Toscani knitwear is realized with Shima integral electronic knitting machines, the cutting-edge technology available today on the market. This type of machines allows us to design and realize items with seamless sides, shoulders, and sleeves. The topdown technique requires more testing of the designer’s maths skills, but no seams are needed to make up the garment and you will not feel them on you either: the pattern just smoothly flows along the sweater!
