Passing through Cinque Terre, there is no doubt that Corniglia will be one of your stops. If you…read morehave heard anything about Corniglia, it is actually all true and the steps to the top lead to a reward of your own choice. Will it be gelato? Another hike to the next village? Lunch? Church? Most likely it will be gelato but while you're at it pacing your way through the narrow main street of shops, stop into Fanny Bazar. It's a typical gift shop but one with hand crafted ceramics. The saucers and cups are glossed with lovely rich shades. I couldn't carry them home in my suitcase but did have space for a magnet. The shopkeeper, who is also the ceramic artist, is really nice!

We were passing through Bologna and stumbled upon this very cool, artsy and breezy gift shop…read more Staffed by a wonderful and kind couple, we sorted through all the variety of journals, toys, books, small totes, etc before we settled on a couple t-shirts to buy (we received so so many complements about the shirts while in Italy... grazie mille Fabrica!!). There are too many gift shops to sort through while shopping in Italy- but this one is a must-stop if you're in the area. Well curated selection of unique goods and staffed by good people, highly recommend Fabrica Features!

Made by hand in Turkey, so not really a gift from Italy but it's pretty stuff and I bought three small bowls and a ceramic coaster. Very impulsive of me but I liked the stuff and it traveled well.

Nano Bleu is delightful. I didn't expect to find myself in a toy store on this business trip to…read moreMilan. I don't have any kids and actually having kids or being around kids is the furthest thing from my mind, But, I also didn't expect my work mates to be so bloody boring. We can't go out and party EVERY night. Sometimes we have to stay put and be on call so to speak. Desperate for some entertainment, (I can't understand Italian, so no point in turning on the television) I went after the one game that just about anyone can enjoy-Rumikub. So I wondered around the Duomo area in search of a toy store and stumbled upon Nano Bleu. My Italian is horrible but the staff was really friendly. They spoke just enough English that we could hack through the conversation about Rumikub. Luck was with me that day! They had it. But more importantly, the store is very lovely. The shelves are made from wood with rounded corners. That detail doesn't seem important until you are experiencing it. Everything is in its place. They have a giant collection of stuffed animals. It actually made me feel like a kid again. The staff is great. The place is lovely. I might go back for a stuffed animal!
