GIOVANNIS LINENS AND HANDKERCHIEFS IS CLOSING AFTER NINETY-EIGHT YEARS

Saying good-by is never easy, and after 98 years, GIOVANNIS LINENS AND HANDKERCHIEFS will close its doors and website at the end of June, 2025. Items on our website are very limited, based on the unavailability and high quality of varied linen and cotton goods which have kept us in the business started by my mother, Jennie DiGiovanni, back in the year 1927 on the Atlantic City Boardwalk. We will accept orders through June 30 , still offering free shipping on orders of $60 or more. Now is the time to think of purchases you might wish to make for Christmas, Hanukkah, special gifts, birthdays, brides, men’s and ladies’ initials, and for collectors of beautiful handkerchiefs. After all these years, we thank you for your recognition of the high quality of our goods and the service we have delivered throughout our history, keeping in mind our motto: “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.”

Sincerely,
Maria DiGiovanni Walters
