According to some of the Italian brochures I have these are standard sizes there

Materasso singolo 80 x 190
Materasso 1 e 1/2 120 x 190
Matrimoniale 160 x 190

IKEA has different sizes

Singolo 90 x 200 and 80 x 200
Matrimoniale 160 x 200

So IKEA beds are slightly longer

I agree with Juliancoll's advice regarding duvets which you can split apart. Very handy. Nights can be pretty cold in Lucca.

As for ginding good bedding in Lucca, I am not quite sure, but I could advise you to have a look at the Centro Commerciale I Gigli at Campi Bisenzio, Florence (near Prato) as they have a couple of places with nice things, including Zara Home.
