Waiting for summer,
the sun, the fruit, the colours.
Trovati 1998 Story
"Trovati" (Found in Italian) was born as a side project by Brian Grech. Buying vintage furniture, clothing and accessories in the past was only possible by visiting small shops or knowing individuals that were willing to sell some of their beautiful belongings. I have purchased various bags, clothing as well as furniture on my frequent trips to Paris, Florence and Rome. "1998" is when Brian started his photography venture. A year that is personal, and also old enough to reflect a 'vintage' period.
SCOPE
The intention of TROVATI 1998 is to bring more awareness to beautiful items that can withstand time. A curated collection of found fashion accessories acquired from friends, markets and other reliable sources. to make buying vintage and preowned selected items easier, and at very good value. Rediscovering luxurious items that are still relevant today. Timeless pieces that can be incorporated in your wardrobe; worn and reinvented in the coming years. The core collections will be pre-owned and vintage, however inspiring items produced today will also be included at some point.
VALUE
We guarantee the authenticity of every branded item sold.
Pricing is also very accessible. Some items are equivalent to 25% the current selling prices. How is this possible? Some items have been neglected, sellers are willing to part with the items to get hold of others, or items have been sitting in someone's wardrobe for too long. We also take in consideration age and wear, yet always supplying great pieces.
SUSTAINABILITY
Committed to reduce the impact on the planet, reutilising quality items contributes to a more circular economy. Less fast fashion, more circular, sustainable methods.
