Mercatino dell'Antiquariato

Antiques fair selling high-quality, rare items

Word to the wise: This market only happens four times a year, but is definitely worth checking out if you're in town.
Large, well organised and rich with treasures, professional dealers from all over Italy come to this market to sell their precious wares. Cheaper than antique shops, it's the place to come to bag genuine old mirrors, paintings and furnishings, as well as rare books, superior leather goods and unique glassware. There's no junk here - everything's the real deal - so it's perfect for finding that heirloom-with-a-story to take back home.

Mercatino dell'Antiquariato simply means "Antiques Market", so there will be other, smaller events that have the same name. This event, in Campo San Maurizio, is the important one.
