Tuscany

Ceramic shopping in Tuscany

  1. A

    La Botteghina

    This unassuming little shop resembles dozens of others, but closer inspection reveals one of the city’s best purveyors of ceramics. Specialising in wares from nearby towns Montelupo and Deruta, the store only sells objects made entirely by hand, many of which sport particularly vivid golds and vermillions. Given the quality of the work, prices are quite reasonable.

    Sbigoli Terrecotte

    This family-owned operation churns out beautiful ceramics in the combination of rusticity and refinement that marks the classic Florence style. The shop has shelves and shelves of the stuff, while in back lies the workshop where the Sbigoli family produce their craft and also offer hands-on workshops for budding potters.
