Danielle & Lollo🐶💕 on Instagram: "One of the most common questions I get when visiting Florence, Italy is “Where can I find the best leather?” 💼👞 Most people run to the leather markets but if you want good quality leather, then make sure to check out the leather school, Scuola del Cuoio, which was founded after World War II, to help orphans of the war learn a practical trade to make a living, through the collaborative efforts of the Franciscan friars of the Monastery of Santa Croce and the Gori and Casini families, and Florentine leather artisans since the 1930’s. Their showroom is impressive and it feels like a museum within itself. You can also personalize and engrave your purchase, making the best souvenir or gift to bring home from your travels in Florence. ⚜️ If you’re interes University Of Florence Italy, Three Days In Florence, Florence Italy Leather Market, Museums In Florence, Florence Italy Library, Franciscan Friar, Visit Florence, People Running, Leather Artisan
