Giacobbe

[TxSilver]

I have run across a few pieces that look like Salviati, but have a G. Giacobbe label on them. One label at http://www.tias.com/848/PictPage/1172092.html is larger and easier to read and made me wonder if Giacobbe is an outlet store in the Venetian marketplace. I hope that someone here who has been to Venice would know something about Giacobbe.

TIA,
Anita

Anita,

I can't say that I have heard of G. Giacobbe, but the San Marco address on the lable makes me think that it is a retailer in St. Marks Square, rather than a manufacturer. I have seen other retailers with their own labels, it seems most common in the more touristy areas of Venice. There is a similar store lable somewhere in the forums, ifroma few months ago, if I remember correctly.
