Located on a quiet street just around the corner from Piazza del Popolo, this small store embodies its name by offering an abundance of artisanal crafts from around the world. Its owner Elif Sallorenzo—a half Turkish, half American woman, who married an Italian—loves things that are handmade, so she sources them from Italy and elsewhere. Here, she displays them with pride and can tell you their story of origin, whether it is a wax-cloth shawl from West Africa, an ikat pillow from Istanbul or beauty product from the north of Italy. She carries items that you are unlikely find to elsewhere.

Some of their lines can be found at high-end department stores in the U.S. but here you can shop the entire collection.

Just as Romans have their preferred gelato spots, so do they tend to pick a leathermaker and stick to his wares.

There are basic pieces for sale in the shop, but this leather artisan also makes pieces to order using the finest hides and hand-stitching.

Part workshop and part boutique, L’Archivio di Monserrato is the passion project of Argentine-born fashion designer and art collector Soledad Twombly.

Make an appointment for her one-of-a-kind fashions that both flatter and impress.

In one of Rome’s oldest neighborhoods is the custom shirtmaker Mimmo Siviglia. For almost half a century, Siviglia has been making bespoke shirts for men and women out of the finest Italian cloth. His small shop has brightly painted yellow walls and shelves lined with bolts of fabric—from pastel-colored Egyptian cotton to twill and flannel. You will have to have two fittings and must order a minimum of a half dozen shirts, but once they have your form down (assuming it stays the same), you can order and he will ship anywhere in the world.
