Signum Firenze

I was surprised by the number of stationery shops throughout the city of Florence. In every street in the centre, there was at least one of these shops that transported me back to the past ... vintage letter papers, old toys, notebooks, leather-bound albums, patterned wrapping paper ... the one I liked best was Signum, in Lungarno Archibusieri Street, next to the Ponte Vecchio and the River Arno. This is a chain with two shops in Florence, but this was my favourite (perhaps because it was the first one I saw). There are plenty of options for gifts - old postcards, posters, magnifying glasses, pens, diaries, gard games, old maps, calendars, puppets ...
