The Meneghetti Goldsmith is located in Campo San Bartolomeo, on the east side of the Rialto Bridge towards Piazza San Marco. The staff is well prepared and very kind. Here you can find different gift solutions for every occasion. Prestigious brands and really advantageous prices. The place and the same goldsmith tradition handed down, allow to recall ancient fascinating stories. Precisely in Rialto the goldsmiths developed, thanks to the abundance of raw materials that came from the mines of central Europe and the role of the Germans. In fact, in the Rialto area the presence of the Germans (which also included the Austrians, the Bohemians and the Hungarians) had already been surveyed at the time of the Doge Domenico Morosini between 1148 and 1156. Nearby is the Fondaco dei Tedeschi who was born in Rialto at the behest of the Serenissima as a place of exchange and storage of goods for the Alemanni. To tell the truth the goldsmiths in Venice began to operate first, it seems from 1015 and as mentioned in the conventions between the doge Ottone Orseolo and the Eracleani. Rialto was the strategic area for craftsmanship, trade and education, so much so that the School of Goldsmiths is still visible today in Campo di Rialto Nuovo. In the text of Tassini we remember that distant March 23, 1331, where the Maggior Consiglio had ordered that the goldsmiths could not have a shop, or bargaining in gold and silver works in a place other than the island of Rialto. The exact place was the Ruga dei Oresi that Sabellico (De Situ Urbis), speaking of this part of the city, would like to call it "degli Anelli", for the many rings that were made there.

Sparkling showcases of preciousness among silver, diamonds and gold. At the Meneghetti goldsmith's shop - the owners are the splendid couple Valentina Lombardi and Flavio Marinelli - you will find high quality objects, necklaces, rings, earrings, bracelets, even frames and wedding rings in yellow, white and pink gold. The shop is located in the heart of Venice, in Campo San Bartolomeo near the Rialto bridge.
