    I love the small thin vase available for floral offerings. Are there many of these shrines?

    Fresh flowers too. Maybe they are fake flowers?

    @ Kate - Yes, there are still many of these shrines around Livorno.

    @ ciel - The flowers are probably fake.

    The flowers, whether fresh or fake, are a nice addition.
