Rachele

Centro Storico


If your 12 year old (or younger child) needs a wardrobe update, look up Rachele in her delightful shop just off Via del Pellegrino. With everything from woolly hats and mitts to romper suits and jackets, all brightly coloured and all handmade, this sort of shop is a dying breed. Most items are around the €40 to €60 mark.
