Tàkalá

Close to Campo SS Apostoli, a gift shop of fascinating holograms, Murano glass delights and chunky jewellery.
The Body Shop

Famed for its strong stance against animal testing and its familiar extensive range of irresistible quality bodycare products.
Totem-Il Canale Gallery

Bulky ancient beads, made with vitreous paste and once traded in Africa, are now precious antiques. Contemporary African wood artworks as well.
Tragicomica

The result of 20 years of creating elaborate papier-mâché and leather masks and brocade costumes for Carnival as well as theatrical productions can be appreciated in this spectacular craft shop where the staff explain the significance of pieces.
TSL Tessile San Leonardo

Few passers-by manage not to be tempted by the great value velvety bathrobes, cut-price bed linen and fluffy towels here.
Upim

Wonderful department store with a good range of casual clothes, cosmetics and home furnishings, in the centre of town.
Valese Fonditore

The Valese family foundry has been creating animals, lamps and door knockers in brass and bronze since 1913. Examples of their work can be found in Buckingham Palace and The White House.
Venetia Studium

Exquisite hanging silk lamps of Fortuny design are reproduced with hand-painted patterning and glass beading.
Venice Pavilion Bookshop

Excellent multilingual selection of literature and miscellany focusing on Venice. Also serves as a tourist information point and box office for cultural events.
Venini

Don’t expect Venetian glass animals here, rather innovative platters and vases of great simplicity and style. Since its 1921 beginnings, Venini’s award-winning design team has included top names Carlo Scarpa and Gae Aulenti.
