Since 1887, the Bartolozzi family has passed on the art of antiques with passion and competence, exploring masterpieces from the 15th to the 19th century. Founded by great-grandfather Guido Bartolozzi, the business had its historic headquarters in Via Maggio 18/r, the heart of Florentine antiques, until 2014. The shop, housed in a sixteenth-century building, preserved intact historical details such as the original metal closures wood and a nineteenth-century fir floor. Today the gallery is located at number 11/r of Via Maggio, inside the prestigious Palazzo Michelozzi, purchased by the family in 1922 and still owned by it, confirming a deep bond with tradition and the territory.

Vivoli, a true institution in Florence, has been carrying on a historical tradition of passion and authenticity for almost a century. Founded in 1929 by Serafino Vivoli as a dairy in via Isola delle Stinche, it soon became a beloved meeting place to enjoy coffee and whipped cream on Sundays.

In 1932, together with his brother Raffaello, Serafino undertook the production of ice cream, exploiting ingenious methods of preserving ice from Saltino, in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines. In the 60s and 70s, under the guidance of Piero, Raffaello's son, the Gelateria Vivoli established itself as an iconic meeting point, reported in international tourist guides as an unmissable stop. Even today, Vivoli continues to delight its customers with artisanal ice creams and desserts of its own production, combining tradition and innovation in an experience with an unmistakable taste.
