Cloth by the length or something ready to wear?

Ditta Guenzati’s long Milan history is most useful to a visitor when the material choice becomes concrete. Cloth, hats and accessories answer different needs. Someone seeking fabric for a tailor should ask about fibre, width and available length of the actual bolt; someone seeking a scarf or hat needs to examine the finished piece, not infer it from a swatch. The 1768 date explains continuity of the business, but it does not date any current bolt or prove its origin.2
