OK, I know that this is a stretch ... but does anyone know or recall the name of the little pottery shop tucked in a small corner of the main square (I think it's the Piazza del Duomo)? This shop isn't on the main shopping street of the town at all ... it's a few doors down from the gelateria and sort of catty corner to the Museo della Tortura.
Anyhow, I've lost the business card for this shop and I'd love to order some more pieces for my mom for Christmas. If anyone can give me any helpful hints for remembering the name of this shop, or even better, if you know the phone #, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks!

Hi, Jessica. I can't help you with this shop in SG. Sorry. But, if you have your heart set on handpainted, Italian Pottery, I have the website of a fabulous shop in Ravello. I saw the goods, met with the owner and have ordered from him and had it sent to the States.
Send me an email if you like. Good luck!

why not contact the tourist office in SG and ask them??

Hi Jessica,

Try this site and see if it is the same place.

The only other one besides Ira's in Piazza Duomo is:

PICIACCHI Patrizia
Piazza del Duomo 4
Tel: San Gim. (0577) 940717

Does that ring a bell?

Thank you so so so much for all of your help. The people on Fodors are always so great.

I'm going to try the last suggestion. My mom had her heart set on an original design and she ended up at this great little shop where the guy makes and paints all of his own pottery. The only downside is that when you've lost the # and you can't remember the name it's hard to order more!

Thanks again for all your help. Fodorites are fabulous!

Hi-This site is wonderfull. I am writing notes so I don't miss anything when we go next year. We pack a silver smasable ice chest in our suitcase & carry home all the breakable pottery. They make wonderfull Christmas gifts Chris
