Discovering craftsmanship
An
area that enjoys a strong presence of an appreciation of culture and
artistic tradition must also be an area in which the production
of carefully crafted goods will flourish.
As we find in the annals from the renaissance period, still today
each Tuscan village, borough and community lovingly encourages craftsmanship
in one or more forms.
Sometimes these are simply an expression of local customs, but in
some instances this has involved setting up actual industrial undertakings
as happened in the Prato textile industry, the Florentine leather
industry and in alabaster companies.
In this section you will find a complete overview of craft production
in Tuscany and, on top of this, there will be a topic-divided file
every month covering the most important craft businesses.
