Handicraft and ancient
workshops
Florence is a unique shopping paradise that offers
products of ancient handcrafted tradition and modern
fashion talent.
For over 400 years and since the days of the Medici,
Florentine artisans have been renowned masters of
many materials, such as gold, ceramics, iron, wood,
bronze, marble and textiles.
This historical artisan tradition is still alive
today in the workshops (botteghe) downtown and in
the Oltrarno district of Florence.
Your native Florentine guide will open these
workshop doors for you to reveal a world of
craftsmanship and preciousness that most believe had
long since disappeared.
It will also be possible, on request, to watch the
artisans creating their products by the use of
techniques that often go back to many centuries ago.
Custom tailored shopping
In addition to ancient treasures, Florence shopping
includes an exciting and modern variety of the most
famous Italian designer’s boutiques and showrooms.
You will be enchanted by their sophisticated
displays of luxurious, contemporary clothing,
accessories, leather garments, shoes, bags, and
jewelry. All are made with extraordinary care,
illustrating the creativity and talent of Italian
fashion designers.
Florence is the shopper’s paradise in Italy – that
is renown. Though, it can be difficult wandering
around and find exactly what you are looking for,
best quality and fair price. Having your shopping
assistant will mean to be garanteed to get the best
from your shopping, to spare time, to receive
objective, unbiased advise by a professional
assistant, and, not the least, to have fun.
Each tour is personalized according to the client’s
requirements. Before starting the tour your personal
shopping guide will contact you to discuss about
your interests and objectives, in order to carry out
a a time-efficient itinerary.
Of course, help will be offered with all of your
tax-free documents and shipping needs.
