I was so pleasantly surprised by the welcoming and attentive staff, who regarded both me and MY WIFE (which is a big deal because of the unfortunate stereotypes around how the enjoyers of these hobbies treat women.) I had a great time exploring the shop and left with a nice stack of packs in both English and Italian. The Italian packs make great souvenirs!

We went there and everything was truly magical. We bought few souvenirs and left with a positive experience to remember for years :) keep in mind the toys are bit pricy but also remember it's all hand made in Italy and a family owned business, you're paying for top quality craftsmanship with toys and figurines that almost could talk to you. Amazing.

Most sourvenir shops sell miniature David's and things that all reference Florence by name. This shop sells items that are the soul of Florence. We ended up buying much more than we thought as the items "spoke to us". It's worth a few minutes of your time if your in the area.

One of the things I LOVED about Firenze were the tiny specialty shops that lined up the streets…read morearound the Duomo. As someone who loves crafts (to buy, not make), I was automatically drawn to II Papiro partially because of its welcoming and warm lit environs, but mostly because of its incredible stationary, papers, cards, and related accessories you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere else in the world. As the digital age begins to permanently change how we read and communicate and express ourselves, it's important to remember that at one point in history, paper making was as much of an art as anything that was written or drawn on it. You will find papers of all colors, patterns, and more importantly, textures at II Papiro - each item is the type of product you know much work went into. I bought a few cards here...the designs are extraordinary colored silhouettes of Firenze landmarks and had detailed cuts in its design. I also bought a wax seal (although I remember being tempted by the nice calligraphy pens). Although I've only used it a few times, I still get a kick of STAMPING melted wax with my seal (my fancy looking initials). If you're ever at Firenze, this place is definitely worth stopping by if only for even a little bit...you might find something you will value taking home with you that beats a lot of items you could find at your regular tourist traps.
