Best Souvenirs from Siena

# Best Souvenirs from Siena

Specific things worth bringing home from Siena (and what to skip).

Key facts

• Panforte (vacuum-packed travels well, 15-25 euro).
• A bottle of Chianti Classico from a small producer.
• Sienese ceramics (look for handpainted, not mass-produced).
• A contrada scarf or pin (3-15 euro).
• Olive oil from the Crete Senesi (15-25 euro for 500ml).

What I tell visitors

Skip: T-shirts with 'I Love Siena', glass figurines (those are Murano), generic Italy postcards (better at a tabacchi than a souvenir shop).
