A living museum of textile mastery, where century-old Jacquard looms are still operated by hand every day to produce some of the world's most prized fabrics.
A complete journey into the world of Tuscan wine will follow: vineyards, a unique and immersive cellar visit, wine tasting and lunch.
And finally one of the few artisan workshops still active in Florence, where visitors can watch craftsmen create each piece by hand, from start to finish — a true behind-the-scenes experience, with the opportunity to purchase products in the spacious 800m² shop.
MADE in FLORENCE: Local Lore and Flavors
1 Day"Today's tour begins at an ancient weaving mill (founded in 1906), where master weavers on Jacquard looms produce some of the world's finest velvets, brocades and damasks, in a tradition passed down through three generations. The one-hour tour will guide you through the entire production process, from raw materials to the finished product."
Next, you will immerse yourself in Tuscan wine culture with a walk through the vineyards, a cellar visit, a tasting of four IGT Toscana wines and an unforgettable lunch at a magnificent farming estate.
The tour concludes with a visit to a leather bag factory, where you will discover the art of artisan leatherwork — from raw materials to finished bags, jackets and accessories — all crafted in keeping with age-old traditions of quality and craftsmanship. You will then have the opportunity to visit the 1,000 m² mega store, where you can shop for bags, jackets, belts and every leather item you could wish for.
