Located down a corridor between the Old Bridge and Pitti Palace, this ceramic shop offers colorful…read moredishes, bowls, pottery, oil dispensers, etc. of various sizes and designs. Prices here are very reasonable and they can ship your purchases if you don't want to carry them with you. The shop itself is tiny and consists of several small spaces crammed full of items. They also display a lot of their wares along the corridor outside their shop as well as the walls. We found a napkin holder we really liked and bought. The woman working here was extremely helpful and nice. It's really worthy of a stop just to view Italian artistry even if you're not in the market for colorful Italian ceramics.

Mery has been at this location for more than 10 years. Her shop has traditional Tuscan ceramics,…read moredecorated in traditional Tuscan motifs. The variety of items is stunning. Small items, such as bottle stoppers, magnets, and mugs to large platters, tiles and bowls. Everything in between. A gift or souvenir at every price point. Her shipping, done by her husband, is phenomenal. In approximately 10 shipments done for my family and I over the years, there has not been even a small chip. It is perfect. While this is a "mom and pop shop" in the best sense, it is backed with rapid DHL shipping. Not slap dash, just highly efficient. I have entrusted them with thousands of dollars without a single disappointment. You will not find better.

This was a small shop, but they did have a few seats available. The service was fast - it was fun to watch them shave the meat right in front of me. I grabbed a prosciutto sandwich and ate it while walking around the market. I thought the meat was pretty good, but nothing extraordinary. I will say that I wasn't a fan of the bread - it was fairly dry and I had a hard time digesting it. I had to drink a bunch of water after eating it. Next time I would try out one of the other stalls instead.

The platter also had all sorts of favorite antipasto items such as cheese, sundried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, olives, roasted eggplant, etc. We enjoyed a few glasses for red wine and had so much, we took half of it home to have later. Friendly staff!
