During a tour of the Citadel of Calvi, be sure to check out Dcampanaglass, a craft shop located near the historic landmark, at 45 Quai Adolphe Landry. In this famous workshop, the island's best glass blowers turn ordinary glass into real works of art. Figures of animals and mythical characters of colored glass are especially popular with tourists. Such unique souvenirs are not expensive at all.
No less interesting is La Fonderie d`Art, a craft workshop selling original metal products. Ladies will be able to treat themselves with chic jewelry and men would probably like daggers and Laguiole knives made using old technology. In this workshop, they also sell fine bronze sculptures, as well as home decorations made of rare ebony.
In the village of Pigna, tourists can visit original specialized store Scatt’à musica where author's music boxes are sold. The store owner makes all the boxes herself, so it's hardly possible to find similar ones in other stores.
While in Ajaccio, all women are invited to Chrysolithe. This store specializes in designer's jewelry. In addition to traditional products made from precious metals, you can also buy quite unusual ones here. For example, chic wooden earrings and necklaces are available to customers, as well as coral and marble jewelry.
