Things to buy from Venice

Plenty to choose from, darling. Marble paper, hand-bound books, masks and velvet fabrics are some of the things of interest. Whatever you're after, just go straight to the source! There're several showrooms and workshops, but their quality is likely to be low. So, if you fancy Murano glass, just rush to the island! Studio Livio de Marchi in San Marco Street, 3157/a, has first class funny works, though, made out of wood and glass. If the surrealist sculptor isn't at home, he must be driving his Ferarri-vaporetto, a hand-carved boat in the shape of a Ferrari F50!!
