About La Paccottiglia di Laura
I am an ex-biologist who was always interested in history and art. After meeting my now-husband, Ian, I learned from him how to restore antique furniture and found a new passion. We live in Italy and spend out days driving to beautiful places to source the best pieces to place in your home. Together with restoring I absolutely love painting furniture and decorations following traditional artisanal methods that respect the history of the pieces.
