The hand-made work sold at the island's Scuola dei Merletti is expensive, though not to a degree that's disproportionate to the hours and labour that go into making it. If you want an inexpensive example of the work, a little butterfly goes for about L15,000. In Venice itself, the most impressive shop is Jesurum at Merceria San Salvador 4857, San Marco, and also at Piazza San Marco 60-61; if that's out of your price range, try the vast Kerer showroom , installed in the Palazzo Trevisan-Cappello over the bridge at the rear of the Basilica di San Marco - it sells a wide range of lace, both affordable and exclusive.
