Arsauri (Via di Piazza del Popolo 18) proposes bracelets, earrings, brooches and rings.

The elegant shop of Orogami goldsmith (Via del Duomo)  displays its jewels of exceptional beauty.  

The goldsmith Trequattrini Fabrizio (Corso Cavour 47  realizes hand made jewels.)

At the merging of Via del Duomo with Piazza del Duomo Maria Luigia Moretti is the right shop to buy ancient dolls and lace works.

For traditional ceramics there is a  large choice of shops along  Via del Duomo, the street connecting Corso Cavour with Piazza del Duomo.

Bottega Michelangeli, located in the historical town center, a few meters from the Torre del Moro, is the best place to admire and buy unusual wooden sculptures, particular furniture, small carved items and artistic toys such as dolls, animals, angels and many more.  In the neighbor Orvieto Scalo, Mr. San Giovanni has a similar workshop where he produces and assembles unique and romantic pieces of wooden furniture.

Fratelli Batalocco (Batalocco Bros), in Via del Duomo, sell gourmet food from a large choice of cheeses,  salamis, wild boar and pork sausages, prosciutto, up to the excellent and expensive white truffles.

Another well furnished grocery shop is Carraro, it  easy to recognize it because has a stuffed  wild-boar outside of the entry.

Several handicrafts still survive in Orvieto such as the ceramic manufacture, and you can buy these items in the whole Orvieto, but especially along Via del Duomo, where many shops show and sell their beautiful handmade products.

If you want to buy a Pizza (take away) try Alvaro's  Pizzeria in Piazza del Popolo  or Pizzeria "Al Cordone" Via Filippeschi 22 , or the Pizzeria (I don't remember the name but it is located on the corner between Corso Cavour and Via Angelo da Orvieto). Anyway in Orvieto  you'll find a good pizza everywhere.

If you don't like to cook or you have no spare time for cooking try Pizzeria San Domenico, on the corner between Piazza San Domenico and Via Cavallotti. Massimo and his wife prepare nice cold and hot dishes (pasta, meat or vegetables) ,eg: trippa, coratella, Tuscan crostini sauce,  tomatoes with rice and potatoes, roasted rabbit, lingua in salmģ (sliced tongue with parsley sauce, very appetizing.) , rice croquettes and many more.  

For shoe shopping the right choice  and the obligatory stop  is Urania Calzature, (Corso Cavour 209) . Inside you will find comfortable shoes as well as the most famous Italian shoe brands such as Pollini, Madras,  Fratelli Rossetti, Mephisto, and many more. (It's is my favorite!)
