Florence to your suitcase: Tuscan gifts that travel well

In Florence, you can buy the same global goods you find back home—mass-made souvenirs engineered for tourists, stamped who-knows-where by who-knows-who. Or you can choose what exists only here: pieces by Florentine and Tuscan artisans and designers, unique, original, sustainable, and curated by us with standards that don’t blink. This guide keeps it simple: carry-on-friendly gifts that feel like Florence when you open them again at home.
