This is one of my favorite purse manufacturers. This particular location is their factory. 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.

We first discovered MDF on a trip to Venice in 2014. Michele had just opened his store and he…read moreshared with us his vision of Italian artisanship and bringing back meaning to the "Made in Italy" designation. I purchased one of his prototype purses (there were no logos then) and a belt, which are two of my favorite accessories. Fast forward 3 years and we visited the store again. Same beautiful styles and unique designs, with a little more "edge." I ended up purchasing one of the original purse styles (Borsa No. 1) in a different color, but all the items I previewed were gorgeous. If you want Italian craftsmanship with superior design and quality, look no further than Michele de Fina - Venezia. You will not be disappointed.

My husband spent $50 on a "cashmere" scarf from this place. The first time he wore it, the ink bled…read moreall over his shirt and even stained his neck! He was set on throwing it away, but I insisted on trying to salvage it. I googled solutions (also learning that it likely was not real cashmere) and despite washing and soaking, it still bled! Terrible! This place is cheating its customers. We thought because it was a real physical store that it was a legitimate business. This scam must survive on tourists--by the time someone realizes they bought garbage, they are already too far away to complain! Don't spend your hard earned money here!

Did you know that the gondoliers have an official clothing sponsor? Since 2012 Emilio Ceccato has…read morebeen the exclusive supplier of the gondolier's uniform. In addition to the uniform they sell gondola-themed clothing and accessories. They have three stores in the city with the easiest accessible store located in the base of the Rialto Bridge. All their items are also available online. As the official sponsor all royalties from the sale of merchandise fund projects that preserve the gondola tradition as well as the specialty jobs supporting the gondola profession (gondola makers, schools for gondoliers, etc.) I found this to be very admirable. One of my few regrets visiting Venice was not stopping by and purchasing my souvenir here. I found out about Emilio Ceccato through their website. My most coveted souvenir from my two-week trip to Italy was a rope bracelet adorned with the "ferro di prua" - the iron prow situated on the top of every gondola and thus symbolic of Venice. Whenever I'm traveling I'm always on the lookout for unique wearable souvenirs and I immediately fell in love with the bracelet at first sight. The store carrying the bracelet was situated in one of the back streets of Venice (but somewhere along San Marco) but it carried more chic and unique Venice-related souvenirs than your store that sells tacky tourist trinkets or Murano glass jewlery, as those shops are a dime a dozen. A week after returning to the US I wore the bracelet for the first time and I ended up losing it. It was wholly my fault as I originally bought a bracelet that was too big and thus kept on moving around. I was set on replacing that bracelet. Luckily a Google search revealed the Emilio Ceccato website being an authorized seller of my bracelet. I was able to find the exact bracelet but in a smaller size. The price listed was the exact price I paid in the other vendor plus a shipping fee of about €20. The shipping was steep but I was able to get my bracelet shipped through DHL in less than a week. I'm still very happy of my purchase and I thank Emilio Ceccato for giving me the opportunity to replace my lost item.
