This site has links to websites for at least some of the shops. The selection will be much more extensive than what you see on-line, however.

I dont think they are overly expensive on the P. Vecchio. I shopped a few times on the first store on the right if you are coming from the Uffizi side of the river. Just politely bargain with them a bit, they have high quality work.

I respectfully disagree with maitai. I have purchased rings and paid far less for them than what I would have paid at home. And they are all 18k gold. It depends on what you are in interested in buying but I'm sure you can find jewelry in any price range. I shopped at this store:

Florence has beautiful jewelry but just wanted to comment that if you buy a 18K ring and plan on wearing it every day, such as to work etc. do be aware that 18K is softer than the 14K we normally have here in the US. Consequently constant wear can cause the band to break.
