In Pistoia, the second Saturday and Sunday of the month an antique fair is held which attracts  many dealers from all over Tuscany. Here you can find very valuable antiques: furniture, majolica, porcelain, jewelery, clocks, coins, old lacework, crystal goblets and profane and religious period paintings.

On the stalls you can find clothing, utensils and ethnic products, as well as magazines, comics, used garments and other items from the past. 

The market takes place in the so called Cattedrale - not to confuse with the real Cathedral - (Via Pertini) - eccept July and August.

There are about 100 exhibitors who animate the historic city center with various kinds of antiques every second Saturday and Sunday of the month except July and August.

You will find ceramics, glassware and cutlery for a romantic table setting and a very good range of embroidered linen (perhaps an untouched trousseau from a failed marriage). Also sepia paintings, watercolours, vintage  postcards (full of insight into how we lived in the past and complete with shaky handwriting), out-of-print books for the attentive book collector, silver and gold coins from every corner of the globe and much, much more.

Where: Pisa, Piazza dei Cavalieri, Piazza Garibaldi

Born in Borgo a Mozzano to promote and incentivize the cultivation of the azalea, typical of the area, the exhibition has now become a much-anticipated event for both producers and hobbyists dedicated to cultivating this plant.

In addition to the numerous exhibition stands, there are also collateral initiatives related to gardening and local craftsmanship.

The Azalea Market and Exhibition held in the municipality of Borgo a Mozzano owes its inception to the Agricultural Study Center of Shell Italia, which in 1954 decided to consider the aspects and possibilities of small peasant properties in a economically depressed municipality, choosing Borgo a Mozzano as the location for the experiment. The technicians who settled in the village noticed that numerous azalea plants were being cultivated in the courtyards of the houses, developing and reproducing with the utmost spontaneity and ease, thus discovering that the entire area constituted an ideal habitat for this type of plant, and decided to promote its commercialization. In 1970, the 1st Azalea Exhibition was organized, involving all those who owned one or more plants, and it was attended by numerous nurserymen and floriculturists from Pescia, Pistoia, Montecatini, Pontedera, and Pietrasanta, invited for the occasion.

After this initial small success, the Agricultural Study Center offered to help all those who declared themselves willing to undertake this particular floriculture, providing azalea cuttings and technical assistance to start cultivation and commercialization, thus leading many farmers to become true cultivators. Since then, this floricultural event has taken place every year in May, increasingly involving collateral sectors, leading to increasing success in terms of both public engagement and critical acclaim.

The Colle di Monsummano: Nature, Orchids and Birdwatching

Located along the Montalbano ridge, the Colle di Monsummano is a prominent natural site due to its geological, faunal, floral and vegetational features. Its geomorphological structure, with the south-facing slopes covered in Mediterranean scrubland and large rocky environments (former quarries) at very low altitudes, offers a unique habitat for plants and animals, quite uncommon in this area.

The lush Mediterranean scrub is dominated by evergreen shrubs such as Myrtle, Laurustinus, Buckthorn, and Mock Privet. In spring, their greenery is punctuated by the white blossoms of cistus, field anemones, and several species of wild orchids — one of the Colle’s key botanical highlights. In fact, the number of orchid species observed here throughout the year is unmatched in any other part of the Montalbano.

While these orchids may not match the size of their tropical cousins, their beauty is undeniable. Their charm lies not only in their striking appearance — sometimes quite bizarre — but also in their unique ecological adaptations, making them among the most evolved plants in the botanical world.

For nature lovers, Colle di Monsummano is also a great spot for birdwatching. The Mediterranean scrub and rocky landscapes are home to species such as the Blue Rock Thrush (beloved by poet Leopardi), the Peregrine Falcon, the Raven, and many others.

Participation is free but limited — booking is required via email at info@naturaintoscana.it by providing a contact name, number of participants and a phone number.

Difficulty: easy trail with a modest gradient (approx. 2 km, 80 m elevation gain)

Recommended gear: hiking boots and binoculars

Participation fee: free of charge, courtesy of the Municipality of Monsummano

The Explosion of the Cart is Florence’s most famous traditional religious festivity held since 150 years. The ceremony begins at 10 am when the Cart known as “il Brindellone”, loaded with fireworks, is carried in a procession that winds its way through the city streets with the flagthrowers and arrives in front af Santa Maria del Fiore.

Here, at 11am, the colombina, a rocket in the shape of a dove, symbolizing the Holy Spirit, will fly out of the cathedral and then ignite the upper part of the Brindellone, creating an extraordinary fireworks show. The various ways in which the cart catches light are reputed to bode well, or ill, for the year’s harvest. 

Second among the antique-dealers' market places of Tuscany for the number of its exhibitors and length of life, the Antique market of Lucca can boast of a solid tradition of quality and reliability thanks to professional antiquarians of high prestige who have always been an important presence in town. 

At the third weekend of each month (on Saturday and Sunday), from 8 am to 7 pm, Lucca opens its gates for a joyful event involving a large portion of the historical centre: from Piazza S. Martino, Piazza Antelminelli and Via Del Battistero - the historical antique dealers' street- ‚ to Piazza San Giusto, and Piazza S. Giovanni up to Piazza Bernardini. It is a gorgeous display of colorful stalls offering not only past vestiges of remarkable artistic value, but also traces of souvenirs impressed on a post-card, on a book, on a knick-knack or on an ornament. 

Furniture, clothes, fabrics, paintings, rare components of old instruments, lamps and chandeliers, old working tools, records..... a wide pattern of old or antique objects‚ patiently gathered and collected after explorations which

are getting more and more difficult. All these things speak to both the tourist and the lover, of a world, which has gone, but not willing to be forgotten yet.

Two unforgettable days around the most charming

streets of the town. It is Art facing Art, History meeting History. A really unique occasion to know Lucca better and taste the pleasure of peeping through the stalls in search of something beautiful to take home and - why not?- probably also making a good bargain! 

The Sacred Belt of the Prato Cathedral is a thin strip of green fabric with gold brocades and a green tassel and band at the ends. As told in an ancient oriental apocryphal text after the Blessed Virgin's death St. Thomas was carried by angels to the mount of Olives; there he contemplated the Virgin while she was taken up into the Heaven, and received the gift of the belt in proof of the event. According to Prato medieval tradition the sacred belt was then entrusted to a priest and preserved by his descendants. After the first crusade, a Prato pilgrim of modest origins called Michele, fell in love with Maria, the daughter of an oriental priest and married her in secret, against her father's wish and received as dowry the "Sacred Belt" in a small basket made of rushes. After returning to Prato around 1141, Michele spoke to no one about the holy relic and only on his death bed (1172), he donated it to the provost of the nearby church of St. Stephen. The sacred Belt furthermore was considered the most valuable treasure of the entire city, so much so that its public display was established by the bylaws of Commune which still today has in custody a set of the keys required to take it out of the altar. Up to the end of 13th century the holy relic was kept close to the high altar but in 1346 it moved to the left of the main entrance of the ancient church and later Cathedral where in 1386-90  was built, on a project by Lorenzo di Filippo, the chapel that stores the holy relic. The chapel is decorated with frescoes of Stories of the Virgin and of the belt (1392-95), a series of amazing figurative unity painted by Agnolo Gaddi with a faultless technique and luminous colors. On the corner of the façade is the amazing pulpit by Donatello and Michelozzo which was finished in 1438 and created for the display of the Sacred Belt in order to show it to the congregation gathered in the Cathedral square. 

The Easter Monday Craft Market is an annual event held in Greve in Chianti, offering visitors the chance to immerse themselves in Tuscan artisanal tradition.

The market is dedicated to artisans and hobbyists who showcase and sell their own handmade creations.

Piazza Vassallo will transform into a lively exhibition space, where visitors can discover and purchase unique items crafted with local artisanal skill. From handwoven textiles to artistic ceramics, as well as jewelry, sculptures, and traditional food and wine products, the market is a must-visit event for anyone wishing to take home an authentic piece of Tuscan heritage.
