Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so you should contact your local customs office for further information.The gondola is completely painted in black, a colour requested by a decree of the Magistrate of the Pomp (16th century) intended to limit the excessive luxury used by the noble and rich to adorn their own boats.

Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. These long, narrow boats are traditionally painted black, and they are propelled by a single oarsman using a long, flat paddle.

Inseparably linked to the city of Venice, of which it is the most famous symbol, the gondola is the most famous boat in the world, the most elegant and the most sophis- ticated and, due to its characteristics of manoeuvrability and speed, it was the Venetian boat best adapted to the transport of persons before the advent of the motorised craft. Our collections come in both pre-owned and brand new condition meaning you can find the right deal for you! A sumptuary law of Venice required that gondolas should be painted black, and they are customarily so painted now. The exact origins of the gondola are unclear, but it is believed that they have been used in Venice since at least the 11th century.
