  • In my first evening in Rome our tour group went to this little antique store near our hotel! I found a few things, though I was extremely picky considering my constraints with fitting everything in the luggage back!

    2:53 OMGee…if you get those art glass vases, you have to wrap them within an inch or your life…esp the one with the white handle. With a “bump” or the wrong kind of pressure, I can just see it cracking off pretty easily. I know you know how to pack and ship fragile items….but their fragility just stood out for me. Fun shopping in Rome! Wow! Good luck and safe travels!

    Whenever we used to go on holiday in the UK, we would always bring a very sturdy carry-on bag that we could put any fragile purchases or gifts into it. It makes it far easier to go through customs while doing this. Also, it is always easy to purchase some bubble wrap to put around any fragile items that you store in your suitcase.

    • @erinmaxwell8133
      @erinmaxwell8133 Год назад +1

    • @phillymouse2033
      @phillymouse2033 Год назад +1

      @@erinmaxwell8133 It depends on what country you are in. I would recommend checking with your tour guide or at the hotel for advice on shipping items back to the US.

    In Italy, if it has a Murano sticker, it probably is from the Island of Murano! Just saying! Too bad it is so expensive to ship stuff back to the US. Some of your co travelers are probably shipping stuff back, or maybe brought an extra suitcase. I am working on getting Italian citizenship; my grandfather was born in Italy! They go by your paternal relative in Italy. I have my mom's birth certificate that states her dad was born in Italy! So many fabulous, affordable treasures!! Beautiful artwork! I found that little metal coffee set for my daughter at a thrift store!! She loves it!!

    • @ryders_mom
      @ryders_mom Год назад +1

      In a high end shop like this, it probably is real Murano. However, in some of the more touristy areas where there are a lot of souvenir shops, fakes are mass produced and sold to travelers who aren't knowledgeable enough to know the difference.

    @lyndadilley7192 Год назад

    Hey Jeffy,
    You can always ask the shop to mail it to your home. Postage is outrageous everywhere.
    But it doesn't have up suitcase, plus you don't have to worry about damage.
    I traveled in 1982 all over Europe, I learned you can't buy everyone something from every place. Better to think one nice item, instead of little stuff.
    Also remember today with all the import export shops in America....you can sometimes buy the same thing at home. It will cost you more here, but it's an options.
    😅

    You always buy smalls. I was in the Mediterranean last August for three weeks. Did not go to shop. I did purchase many vintage items when in PV Mexico a few years ago. Buying the art is smart for packing and not fragile. I would have concentrated on those items. You should have brought along a large suitcase full of bubble wrap for your purchases. I hope you enjoyed some good food. I did not care for the pizza in Rome. Too much like a cracker crust but did eat it at 3 different places. Amalfi has much better pizza. My parents ran I pizzeria in NY in the 60’s, so I am particular about my crust!!! Nice to see you shopping in another country.
