Update! Tove (an amazing admin from my Facebook Bitossi identification group) let me know that the cat we picked up in Florence was NOT a knock off!! 🥳 It is in fact a Bitossi piece made for Sardinian retailer Sardartis 🙌

[@WOOZIE4244]

Loving your tour of Europe.

[@WOOZIE4244]

O M G thats all i can say. Loving your videos.

[@SRVfangirl]

I just saw another KZbinr pick up a Bitossi Penguin at an Antique Store for $38.00. The vendor had it marked “Funky Clay Penguin”.

[@emilymalcolm87]

OH MY LORDY !!!! My eyes were all over the place. What an honour to take a peek at such an amazing collection.

[@laurettaatkins8425]

Tour of a lifetime! Beautiful moment in time. Thank you for sharing this tour!

[@MickeyC321]

See! See! Years of learning, searching, wishing, planning and working came to fruition for you! I am so happy you shared this with us. Everything about the tour was first class and beautiful. Arianna was a delight and a treasure to the company and museum. Thanks to all of you from my little corner in Florida.

[@candydonnelly7543]

Oh Laura, what a once in a lifetime experience! The next time I am in Florence, this is a definite adventure. I went back and saw the video again, without the music, the pottery is breathtaking. Thank you, thank you, thank you!❤️👍❤️

[@deborahdewar746]

WOW! That was amazing. Thank you , thank you, thank you, for sharing!!!!!!!!!

[@carolrado1982]

Can tell it was one dream come true bc your voice became quiet, reverant - eyes taking it all in while your spirit was floating on a Bitossi cloud.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

You are correct! It was honestly overwhelming. I wanted to soak in every word she said 😌 Such a dream come true!

[@tamairadanyluk5124]

This was a VERY SPECIAL video of the Bitossi museum. I would never have know anything about this artist if it wasn't for watching your video's and hearing the name as you search the thrift and vintage shops, and now bringing us directly to the museum. Thank you very much for sharing your trip with us through your camera lens. I absolutely love watching your video's and will keep working my way through your subscription playlists! Warmest regards

[@rescuedrelics20]

Thank you so much for taking us along with you!

[@frandutton24]

Oh Laura. Thank you for taking us along on this incredible journey through Bitossi Museum. Spectacular!!!! Learned so much. Going to revisit this and treat myself to seeing all that wonderful pottery again. Thank you.

[@janiceboling]

thanks for taking us along!

[@WestCoastWrenVintage]

Came back to watch this episode after your most recent video. Stunning pieces. You sound completely in awe - like walking into a magnificent Cathedral and having to whisper out of shear respect.

[@litaibarcena4041]

My eyes! ...My eyes! ... OMG, Laura! I had to freeze images over and over to get to see all what was there and behind it! I am ecstatic! Thank you so much for this beautiful footage. I am speechless and I wasn't there! Best job ever Laura and Jesse! Looking forward to see Capri through your eyes! Thank you!! ❤️ 😍

[@janketza0206]

Me too!!

[@kathytappero7179]

Oh Laura! What a delightful day!

[@claudettep212]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. So many beautiful pieces my eyes were tarting all over the TV screen! Thank you for sharing this with us. We learn so much from you!

[@SerenitySharesStuff]

OMG. This is a video to keep and study. I shook when I saw a pattern that was on a pitcher that I sold on eBay in 2019. Laura, I can’t believe that they let you film! I was mesmerized. Thank you Thank you for sharing this! I know you were in Heaven. Again, OMG

[@totallytania7978]

Laura was in HEAVEN!! 💙💚💙💚💙💚 Thanks for sharing!😁

[@chantalrochon3566]

[@contempl8ive]

Ohhh I could spend days at that museum. I’m so inspired to go thrifting now! Thank you for these kinds of videos, Laura. I love this one and your Moroccan trip video the most of all I think. I didn’t think I would. You’re a delight to follow.❤ Thank you so much!

[@fabiogarcia5100]

What a treat thank you so much!!!

[@amyweaver4946]

This was a fascinating tour! Thank you so much for sharing this special part of your trip with us. Loved it!

[@sharonlee3748]

What a fantastic opportunity you both had in visiting the Bitossi Museum. I am so grateful to you for sharing this with us. To see so many gorgeous pieces and learn more about the history of Bitossi is really incredible. Thank you so much for allowing us all to come with you both - on this special visit - and on your whole trip! So enjoyable! With love from your friend, Sharon, in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. xo xo

[@luckyboneslora258]

Just came across this and couldn't click fast enough. I love Bitossi!! I just picked up a 2 and 1/2ft umbrella stand in the blue and green pattern. What a thrill to see it all in person!!

[@janinedevilliers510]

Thank you, that was amazing. I didn't know anything about Bitossi until I started watching your videos. I still didn't really get it, until this video. Now I know what you mean. Seeing the gallery was stunning. Something about all of it being displayed in one building as art made a huge positive impression. I just love the colours and designs. I could live in there it is so beautiful. Arianna was so lovely, an asset to the company. Thank you and Jesse so much for your best video ever. 😍👌

[@amandabradley6256]

The yellow and orange ceramics ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@nclare7]

Yes! I want all the orange!!

[@TerELyn]

[@terrychristian2210]

Whoa! A personalized tour of the museum-you must have been beside yourself! Thank you SO much for sharing your experience. Your filming was excellent. Such beautiful pieces.

[@shannonmatuch1410]

Thank you, thank you for introducing me to Bitossi in the 1st place. The museum was super cool and I was surprised to see the orange. Now I will make it a goal on my thrifting adventures to find an orange Bitossi in the wild.

[@maryloucoursen2636]

Thank you Laura and Jesse a treat to my eyes enjoy⚓️💕

[@Ucongold]

I want this piece, and that shelf, and OK, that whole room.. Wrap. It. Up. Please. I love this video because I know how much you love this artist, especially the 1950's blue stage. :)

❤TFS! You are a blessing!

[@Reiki-44-1]

Thanks for sharing. It was amazing!

[@cbarnes9808]

Lol I just asked about this in a different video of yours. This was a treat to watch. Thank you.

[@persnicketyliving]

That was awesome! I learned about Bitossi ceramics from you and was shocked watching one of your videos and saw one so similar to a vase/jar that I thrifted at Goodwill (in Portland) for $3-5. It sits on my desk with highlighters in it, lol. Anyway, I started researching it, and I found one that was identical labeled as "Mid Century Aldo Londi Bitossi Rosenthal-Netter Carta Fiorentina Series." Woohoo! I had no idea I had a Bitossi. :)

[@vilmariepadilla5512]

This was so special, thank you for sharing it with us♥️

[@barenecessities9414]

Those hand made tables 😍

[@carolyn97419]

I am happy for you that the cat is a real Bittossi. Good eye.

[@nicolelloyd7245]

Thanks Laura for taking us with you on tour at the Bitossi museum. You did a fabulous job filming and I felt like I was there. I love all your videos and watch them all more than once, but this one is definitely my favourite one ever!

[@crybaby475]

[@lindamcnamara7803]

Thank you for sharing the museum. Looked like a wonderful time , all your favorites. If they let you take a piece home I'd bet you'd bought it a seat on the plane. Your guide was lovely and made for a great learning experience. Peace

[@msinbalony]

Wow.. this made me so emotional. It's hard to contain so much beauty.. I'm overwhelmed, and even distressed in a weird way. So incredibly generous of them to give you such an extensive tour. I wish I had a super power to know where each and every Bitossi piece in the world is located. Amazing.

[@deanviewofachateaumybandbi7899]

That was so interesting, i will look out for the pottery.
