Since 1952, the Angiolo Frasconi hat factory in Florence has been designing and producing stylish hats with meticulous attention to craftsmanship and innovation.
Over three generations, the family legacy has blended tradition with modernity, creating accessories that reflect contemporary trends while preserving Florentine artisan excellence. Combining inherited know-how with high-precision technology, Angiolo Frasconi has established itself in the most demanding international markets.
Historical Florence hat factory
Founded in post-war Campi Bisenzio, the historic center for straw hat production, Angiolo Frasconi is today a symbol of Made in Italy excellence.
Three generations have led the company, each contributing their vision while honoring the founding values.
Angiolo and Carolina first demonstrated the potential of Florentine hat-making in the delicate post-war period. Later, Alessandro and Alessandra transformed the artisan workshop into a modern enterprise, preserving its artisanal soul. Today, Francesca and Franco continue the family legacy, blending cutting-edge technology with traditional expertise.
This synergy of innovation and family know-how defines the Angiolo Frasconi Florence hat factory today.
