The Florentine Mosaic private tour
Overview
One-hour guided tour inside the Opificio delle Pietre Dure (Workshop of the inlaid of semiprecious stones): the Florentine Mosaic of semi-precious stones created by Ferdinando de' Medici. It was a workshop for the creation of decorations for the tombs of the Medici family.
In order to enjoy the elegance and perfection of these works we should touch them. Unfortunately we are not allowed, so all we can do is observing them from a very close distance: jasper, mother-of-pearl, malachite, lapis lazuli, all kinds of quartz, precious marbles become carved designs.
Take a whole hour for yourself and listen the expert guide telling you about this ancient technique. Appreciate works of great artistic and social value from the time of the Medici Family!
