Scuola del Cuoio
In a courtyard behind Santa Croce, this store and workshop features a long corridor
where craftspeople stand at their stations fashioning their leathergoods by hand. You can
buy the high-quality wares at prices somewhat more reasonable than at most shops,
though don't expect to find bargains.
