Souvenirs (General): Like Amber?

  • Name of Shop: Souvenirs (General)

    We found a wonderful little outside vendor just down the street from Trevi Fountain. She had a wonderful display of jewelry, specifically amber. I found some beautiful pieces for very reasonable prices. For example, I found several beautiful amber necklaces (actually they were the sliders but if you negotiate she will include the chains for free) and the cost ranged from 10-15 Euros each. Up the street there was a jewelry shop that had the same pieces for 30+ Euros each.

  • This isn't a particular shop but the streets that leads you to Trevi Fountain. Our hotel was located just minutes from Via Del Lavatore, which we so much enjoyed strolling down this street, shopping in the little shops and boutiques that line this fantastic street. As you scoot past Trevi Fountain, continue to wander down Via Del Muratte where you will find a some great outdoor street vendors selling beautiful jewelry and scarves at a great price.

    What To Buy: Scarves, jewelry
