One of everything please!

Florence's famous, fabulous, lavish Ponte Vecchio!  A magpie's paradise but I particularly loved all this vintage and antique jewellery.  I called it Florence's Bridge of Sighs....

"There have been shops on Ponte Vecchio since the 13th century. Initially, there were all types of shops, including butchers and fishmongers and, later, tanners, whose "industrial waste" caused a pretty rank stench in the area. In 1593, Ferdinand I decreed that only goldsmiths and jewellers be allowed to have their shops on the bridge in order to improve the well-being of all, including their own as they walked over the bridge."
