If you love luxury clothes and accessories, “St. Mark Square” and the area near it are made just for you!

If you are a fan of football, in this street there is a “Venezia FC” official shop where you can purchase the team merchandise and official players’ uniforms. If you are in search of something more particular, among the famous and fast fashion shops in the historical centre of Venice you can also find some small artisan shops that could surprise you. Among them, you must take a look at “Murano”, one of the little islands of the Venetian Lagoon, where expert artisans make colorful and unique glass objects called “Venetian glass”. There, your personal shopper will guide you to buy an authentic “Venetian Glass” ornament: carafes, Murano beads, crystal vases, bowls and many more. Last but not least, “Burano” is another island of the Venetian Lagoon characterized for lacemaking. In fact, the “Burano lacework” is one of the most renowned laces. Initially, it was just a pastime for noblewomen until “Morosina Morosini”, a doge’s wife, founded a lace workshop for 130 women. Then, it became a paid activity and a popular Venetian export and aristocrats used to wear it as ruffs and collars. For this reason, Venetian lace could be a valuable item to take home with you!
