They…read moreactually have a store at the front of the factory and the owner and daughter are still running the place. There is amazing history here and they family will happily share it with you. The purses are top notch and there is so much work that goes into each design you will be amazed. They are all hand-crafted and each aspect of the purse is created from a template and then made into a metal cutter and then hand pressed into the leather before it is sewn. It is a fascinating process and truly worth a stop in. The prices are incredible and there is a section in the back of last season purses that you can't beat the prices on. If you are in the are it would definitely be worth your time to stop in.

#290-2016: Nove is…read morereknown around the world for its amazing ceramic production, and this store is an institution among retailers. Upon growing up and feeling the need to purchase a set of plates to be used for formal dining, mind inevitably races towards Richard Ginori, Tiffany's and such. Look no further for this establishment serves exactly what you have been looking for at an extremely convenient price! I have toured the premises countless times with many of my international friends and each time we felt like a kid in a candy store. Walking away with an entire set for a fraction of the cost makes your heart tingle with joy. The selection is so vast that it may prove challenging to make up your mind in a timely manner. What I was literally in love with is the olives pattern: very rustic and yet much poshy. If I have to find a negative side is the shipping cost, it may prove to be too much if you purchase too many smaller items for it is by item and not by size. Other than that, with discounted items piling up in the back of the store and countless options (from classics to super colorful) I am sure there will be plenty choices for everyone.

Mercantinos are a big thing here in Italy. They sell second hand items primarily on consignment…read more The great thing about the consignment aspect is that after a certain amount of time the prices drop. Eventually the shop just owns them if they aren't purchased. This particular shop has a ton of options. Way too many for a quick walk through. Even if you know what you are looking for you really have to hunt through the store. So, give yourself plenty of time if you are on a hunting mission and check the dates. After 30 days you can usually ask for a discount.
