Dolce & Amaro

Thirty-five types of chocolate await you here. Treats include limoncello -flavoured dark chocolate and chocolate Neapolitan landmarks, such as Vesuvius. Or how about an all-chocolate coffee-maker with all-chocolate cups?

Italians are known the world over for their leather goods, including bags and shoes. Traditional Neapolitan craftsmanship is the byword here.
Fusaro

This local chain specializes in designer gear for men – shoes, suits, shirts and ties, jeans and jackets, as well as caps, bags and belts.

The south of Italy is known for its hand-painted ceramics. A host of traditional designs are featured here, from simple earthenware beakers to decorative plates with complex scenes.
La Galleria dell’Arte, Anacapri

Some of the best ceramics on the island. Designs tend to evoke the natural hues of the setting – azure, gold, green – usually with flowers and vines or other florid vegetation. Anything can be designed to your specifications and you can watch the artists at work.
La Murrina

These elegant rooms are filled with fine Murano glass, in all shapes, sizes and colours. Exquisite vases, bowls and paperweights.
Limonoro, Sorrento

One of the top souvenirs from the area is limoncello , the signature lemon liqueur. This is a good place to see it being made, after which you’ll know why it packs such a punch – it’s basically pure alcohol with flavouring.
L’Arco Antico, Amalfi

L’Artico Antico helps keep Amalfi’s tradition of handmade paper products alive.
L’Arte del Pulcinella

This little shop is crammed full of Pulcinella figures (see Pulcinella) in all shapes and sizes, from the sweetly innocent to the bawdy. All in keeping with the character’s outlandish personality.
