With a special focus on made-in-Italy goods at fair prices, this guide is a must for visitors who want quality Italian goods without overpaying. Donâ€™t fall into the trap of just going down the main streets and ending up in mostly touristy stores which probably don't guarantee competitive prices or high quality. Now you can buy goods from the most authentic shops, the places where the locals go. This comprehensive yet easy-to-follow guide is also a celebration of Florenceâ€™s world renowned craftsmen and women: find out where to buy directly from the leather workers, goldsmiths, cobblers, stylists and tailors, ceramics artists, and a wealth of other creative artisans all working to rigorously uphold the artistic traditions which Florence is known for worldwide. If you want to find out about the most characteristic shops selling authentic goods such as hand-made leather goods (bags, jackets, wallets, boxes, shoes, belts, etc), originally designed and hand-sewn clothing, Florentine paper goods, hand-made and painted Tuscan and Florentine ceramics, 18 carat gold jewelry in the Florentine style, and more, all at honest prices, this guide is for you. And of course, no insider guide on Florence shopping would be complete without Italian and Florentine designer names. Find out where to find bargains on Gucci, Ferragamo, Pucci, Prada, Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Moschino and countless others.
