Bottega Ricasoli

Highly recommend this leather store. The owner is both knowledgeable and sincere! The quality of the goods is superior and the pricing is fantastic. You will not find better quality, style and pricing. The items are stamped with «Made in Italy’ and several have the official stamp of Firenze. They offer leather, lambskin, goatskin, and other quality products. My husband found a very stylish jacket. The owner offers tax free shopping for international travelers. I highly recommend this shop to all!

We were in Tuscany for a week and got to Florence for just a day and were so pleased to have found Bottega Ricasoli. Their leather goods are beautiful and top quality and their designs just stunning and we felt the pricing was very reasonable, certainly less than we would expect to pay for Italian made leather goods in the U.S. We were fortunate to have just stumbled on this shop but there was another couple from the U.S. and they had been recommended by friends. The service could not have been better… it was as if we were shopping in a Gucci store. The gentleman helping us was extremely helpful and attentive and sincere, getting us different sizes and suggesting styles to try. He knew his inventory and was able to provide detailed information about the leather goods and designs, something we didn’t find in any other store. And he was not pushy at all. I found a gorgeous and very «hip» orange-​brown leather jacket with angled front zipper and oversized collar and my husband found a classic black leather jacket. Our friend who was with us found a gorgeous red leather oversized handbag (made in Milan) and I picked out a stunning teal blue bag (made locally in Firenze), which just felt very Italian. Both of these were found on the half-​price rack. I highly recommend this store to anyone visiting Florence and looking for high-​quality leather goods.
