...But perhaps the most special boutique, one that we stumbled upon quite by
accident—on the way to dinner at Garga, actually—is Il Tamarino Stampe d’Arte
(Via del Moro 46/r, +39 055 282457; www.iltamarino.com ), which combines
Florence’s two finest assets: art and shopping. Here they make fine
limited-edition etchings using a process believed to have originated in
Florence in the early 16th century, in which a copper plate is covered in a wax
varnish and etched, then immersed in a mordant that corrodes the copper where
the wax has been removed. The plate is then inked, covered with a dampened
piece of paper, and passed through the printing press. The dry print is then
watercolored, producing a unique image. You’ll be hard-pressed (sorry) to
choose between from pristine Florentine cityscapes, Tuscan landscapes, and
darling botanicals and butterflies—each a special keepsake from this magical
and majestic place.

Fabulous work! We bought one etching when we were in Italy and decided to order two more from the gallery when we arrived home. We received excellent support from the gallery as they provided different options via email. They were also very prompt throughout the shipping process (We had no problems whatsoever) as they kept us posted throughout the international shipment. All in all we would not hesitate to order additional artwork again from Pier & Sophia as we love their artwork and they run a fantastic gallery. We hope to do it in the near future. Best regards, Rob & Halima

I stumbled upon your wonderful shop on a trip to Florence a few years ago and bought a lovely present for my nephews christening, so when my new nephew came along I knew of the perfect gift! Thank you for such prompt sending and beautiful wrapping, the present is wonderful and was very well received. Thanks again Sarah

Ce sont de magnifiques gravures, les dessins des coraux sont d'une belle finesse, un relief que l'on touche des yeux. Bravo les artistes !! Florence
