I fell in love with Florence, so much so that when I come to Europe, this is where I enter and stay for a while.... love the art, the food, the shopping, finally found the ONLY leather store that offers customer service the way only the U.S. does... I buy leather NO WHERE ELSE... they even came to pick me up at the train station when i couldnt get to them!! hows that for service!... PIEROTUCCI... check them out.. along with Florences other treasures.. the ponte vecchio, the duomo... etc.etc.
