Florence has always been famous for its ancient crafts and in 2019 it was also named “capital of craftsmanship”. With this artisans tour I will not only guide you to discover the city and its most important squares, but I will also accompany you through off the beaten paths where Florence artisans “hide”, to tell you about their history and the origins of their work. The origins of Florence craftsmanship are very ancient. Already during Middle Ages the city was organized into Guilds, association of artisans and craftsmen such as goldsmiths, weavers, paper makers, perfumers, artists and many others. During the guided tour in Florence I will first tell you stories, legends and curiosities about Florence craftsmen and Italian leather in general, then we will visit together a leather craft shop in the historic center. There an expert craftsman will show you some steps of lady leather bags and accessories making and tell you important information about this old craft. If you like you can choose to enrich your experience by participating yourself in a leather craft workshop and make a personalized leather accessory (such as wallets or lady leather handbags) that you can take home with you as a tangible reminder of your trip to Florence.  Finally aperitif in the panoramic terrace.
