Vivoli Piero Il Gelato

In 1929, Serafino Vivoli founded a dairy in Via Isola delle Stinche, where they could get coffee and buy whipped cream. His brother Raffaello joined them, giving the business a further boost, so much so that in 1932 the Vivoli brothers decided to try their hand at making ice cream.
The Gelateria's fame was such that, in the 1960s and 1970s, it was mentioned in American, British, French and German tourist guides as a place not to be missed when visiting the city of Florence.

The interior features a wooden coffered ceiling and stoneware flooring with white marble inserts. The furniture is made of wood, with pink marble tops and ceramic decorations.
