Burano is famous for its lace, and if lace is your thing, then you'll love Burano. Many believe that they make the best laces in the world right here. If you are interested in purchasing lace, I really recommend a visit to the Burano Lace Museum in Piazza Baldassarre Galuppi, 187, before you visit a single store. I found the museum fascinating, and the things I learned meant I could make a more informed choice once I got shopping. It'll cost you 5 euros to get in, and you could really see everything in an hour—a little longer if you really study everything they have. Okay, now for the shopping part. There are so many stores selling lace in Burano that it is hard to mention one or two that stand out. If you don't mind paying high prices and want the very best, then Dalla Lidia, the oldest lacemaker in Burano, offers superb quality handmade lace at prices that make me more nauseous than the boat ride to Burano on a rough sea day. Have a look at Martina Vidal too. Again, quality is high... and so are the prices. There are really some beautiful items though, and it's well worth thinking about purchasing something to support this wonderful tradition. This lace will look beautiful in your home, bring back many memories, and make friends and family very jealous.
