Una vera chicca sul Ponte di Rialto!
Entrati si viene trasportati in un mondo fantastico, le maschere sono molto scenografiche, grandi e dettagliate; la qualità è molto alta. Il ragazzo che ci ha accolti è stato molto gentile e professionale, rispondendo alle nostre domande riguardo la fattura delle maschere.

Fantastico! Maschere a mano!

I studied abroad in Italy in college. Back then when I visited Venice, I really wanted a Venetian mask, but could not afford a nice one. I went back December 2024 and my goal was to finally buy a mask. I was disappointed though, because I felt like I was just seeing the same carbon copy mass produced type masks, which is not what I wanted. I wanted something unique.

Enter Leon D’Oro. I was drawn in by the beautiful storefront right away, because of the wide assortment of pieces that looked nothing like the other stores. There were a few that I liked, but they were pricy and I could not make up my mind. I decided to think about it and over the span of the day I was constantly looking at the photos the lady let me take of the masks I liked, wound up going to the store twice.

Ultimately, the shop attendant patiently waited while I narrowed my choices to three masks. She was so kind and offered to lay them out on white paper so I could see what they’d look like on white walls. I further narrowed it down to two before finally picking one. They shipped it out to me in California, which I appreciated.

Once home, I kept thinking about the other mask. I had wanted to do a sort of sun and moon motif since they complement each other so well (the lighter one has rays like the sun and the darker one has crescents reminiscent of the moon). I called Leon and spoke with him. He gave me his number and texted him a photo of the mask I liked. They still had it and shipped it out — I received it literally the Wednesday after messaging him Friday. Got them hung up, and it’s been a real joy to be able to look at them. I honestly love them so, so much. A few friends came over and exclaimed over how beautiful they are. They’re really unique works of art and Leon is super accommodating and helpful. I cannot recommend this store highly enough. Definitely worth the price to have something so special to remember Italy by. If you’re debating about getting a mask from her, allow me to help you: just do it. You won’t regret it. Grazie mille, Leon!

I got the most beautiful horse head in Venice. I was struck immediately by how amazing it was. I haven’t yet ordered the items to display it but can’t wait to have it prominently displayed. Thank you so much, the experience was amazing from start to finish.

Excellent and extremely friendly! Best in Venice ***

Leon D’oro is such a beautiful true authentic Venetian shop.
I am a returning customer and have been for years.
Leon is lovely and so helpful.
The mask I wanted was quite big and I was on a family road trip and did not want to squeeze it in the car and I also ran out of time to return to the shop. Leon arranged secure safe shipping to my address in England U.K. and my beautiful mask arrived just a few days after I was back home.
If you want a true piece of Venice that is authentic and a trustworthy shopping experience then please visit Leon D’ore on the Rialto Bridge.
Thank you Leon, my mask is beautiful and is definitely the style of English Garden 🌸 meets Venetian Carnival 🎭 See you next time. xxx

Wow, what an amazing shop.
Leon makes masterpieces!
He is a great person to talk to about his art work and understandably is very passionate about what he does.
He can ship anywhere in the world, and his pricing is very transparent.
We found him very honest to deal with.

Leon was very helpful and never pushy. I had initially settled on a mask that wasn't as expensive, but after a bit of talk, I went back to the mask that as Leon put it "speaks to you".
Photos is how I have it displayed now.
If we're ever back in Venice, we'll definitely drop in again. There's something new to see every time you turn around.
