About L.B. Quaquaro
At the end of the 1800s, Giuseppe Quaquaro started a business trading art objects in Santa Margherita Ligure. Upon his death in the 1920s, his sons Luigi and Benedetto founded L.B. Quaquaro, which in 1936 moved to its current store at Via Pescino 1. Since then, generation after generation, the research and trading activity has continued, expanding its horizons to include 20th-century and contemporary art. Selecting fine furniture and objects, studying them, and guiding them to a new chapter in their history is part of the DNA of this company.
