In the heart of Amalfi, just a stone’s throw from the crystal clear waters of the Gulf of Salerno and the Cathedral, you’ll find La Scuderia Del Duca stores. Just beyond the narrow street lined with traditional shops is the latest addition to the De Luca family: Ricordi di Amalfi, located in a former paper mill. This is one of the most iconic artistic establishments on the coast, founded and curated by Andrea De Luca and his family.
These places are not just shops selling Amalfi paper products, but art galleries, a world of beauty, tradition, creativity, and unique pieces chosen with a care that only a true enthusiast can guarantee.
Here you will find drawing paper, writing paper, invitations, and various Amalfi paper products such as diaries, bookmarks, antique sheets decorated with artistic techniques, calligraphy, antiques, and ceramics.
Andrea De Luca, collector, traveler, and profound lover of photography and art, has devoted his time and soul to searching for rare manuscripts, antique pieces, precious paintings, sought-after materials, and artifacts that tell the story of Amalfi or of artists who developed their art on the Amalfi Coast. Much attention has also been devoted to the photographic work of Alfonso Fusco, Andrea’s father-in-law, a renowned photographer who captured the sweet life of Amalfi in the 1950s and 1960s in magnificent shots.
Each piece tells a story: a journey, an encounter, a discovery. Entering the Scuderia del Duca – Ricordi di Amalfi means immersing yourself in an atmosphere suspended between the past and the present, where Amalfi craftsmanship meets the world of global art.
For guests staying at Amalfi Retreat L’Abbraccio, visiting these shops is a recommended experience to truly understand the cultural soul of Amalfi.
An unmissable stop for those seeking authentic beauty, collectibles, and the timeless poetry of handmade paper.
