I would like to find something to bring home for my niece from Italy and a friend is going to give me some money to bring her son a handmade Italian toy, so I was looking around online for a good place in Rome to look. I found a recommendation for Bartolucci and it looks perfect! The store is near the Pantheon, Via dei Pastini, 98,tel. 06 69190894.They carve and paint these adorable wooden toys and other items and the prices look pretty good. If anyone has a kiddo or two they want to bring something back for, this just might be the place to go.
Great! I have no kids of my own but I'm everybody's God mother. :D
ReplyDeleteEven if I wasn't going to buy a toy for anyone, I might want to go by here. It looks adorable and I saw photos of a life-sized wooden Pinocchio sitting on a bench in front of the store. I would love to photograph that ... maybe pose with him! lol
