When in Taormina in July, I found a beautiful Sicilian tablecloth among other linen type gifts…read more The shop owner and I shared meaningful life stories and their impacts on our lives while she carefully gift wrapped each one. It remains a precious memory. And, I will have to reach her for another tablecloth as I want to treat myself to one for the holidays.

I was at the shop in Sept 15 and bought several bread baskets and a little olive dish and the shop…read morewas very cute and had a large selection of very nice and unusual items for the home. It was one of the nicest shops on Corso Umberto as the others seemed to be very touristy and there were also a lot of jewelry stores. For something uniquely Italian at a good price, this is the place to go. The sales lady was so sweet too and took a lot of time wrapping each item and placing a sticker on each, like gift wrapping at no extra charge

Beautiful little shop with beautiful jewelry ....only thing is I purchased a ring and bracelet set…read morewhich was sterling silver dipped in gold. I asked if it was going to tarnish and she assured me that, no it would not. It was not cheap by any means. She gave us a discount on the bracelet from $ 385 eur down to $250 eur and the ring was $140 eur. So it cost almost $500 can. But 3 weeks later the jewelry was already tarnishing. I am so disappointed and upset because I love the set but if I had known it was going to tarnish, I would never have spent $500 on it. So beware if you decide to buy anything that is dipped or plated. It will tarnish no matter what they tell you.
