Tartan Vintage — Local services in Florence

This place is truly a hidden gem in Florence. I found a beautiful vintage garnet ring here at a great price. I hadn’t planned on buying anything when I walked in, but the moment I stepped into this vintage shop, my mind changed completely.

The store was filled with well-maintained items, neatly arranged despite the abundance of treasures. The shop owner was incredibly kind and possessed extensive knowledge about her collection. I had been wanting to buy a garnet ring for a while, and my husband, remembering this, asked her about it. She carefully brought out her collection and explained the history of each piece.

Among them, I found the perfect ring—the one that captured my heart and even fit my finger perfectly. Now, it sparkles on my hand, and I feel like I’ve purchased a piece of Florence’s history. It was one of the most satisfying purchases I’ve ever made.

This vintage shop made my memories of Florence even more special, and now I have a wonderful reason to return. Thank...

This place is never open and I am very mad that my time was wasted not once but twice!!

I came on a Tuesday afternoon during the time frame listed on their instagram. The place was closed. There is a number on the door to call which says if you call the number someone will come. I called the number and nobody answered.

I sent an email to the store asking for the hours this week since clearly the hours on instagram were not up to date.

A couple days later the owner emails back that she will be there Friday afternoon. I show up Friday a little after 4pm which is when google says the store will open. Its still closed! I call the number on the door and she answers and says she won't be there until at least 5:30!

I wasnt about to hang around for an hour and half to find out if she shows up.

If you find yourself in the area and its open, good for you but I would definitely not make any special trips to this store even if it looks like its open based on Google...

Very welcoming hidden gem vintage shop tucked away in an un-touristy alleyway. Authentic high-street designer and small brand pieces of impeccable quality. Think 60’s gucci, céline, gianni versace, hermés, pierre cardin, and a full selection of burberry cashmere.

This shop is perfect for people looking for timeless classics or unique statement bits. You might discover a new style for yourself or find the perfect piece to Add to your aesthetic wardrobe. I got a gorgeous Ferragamo foulard that Valentina pulled out just for me, and the gold/silver belt she suggested was just what i was looking for. The curation is spot on, and the Gucci museum even rents/buys some of her pieces.

Of course, you can expect to pay for the top-notch Italian quality, but do pop in to this welcoming little shop to browse Valentina’s collection and try something on- but be warned, you might...
