Homeware shopping in Copenhagen

  1. A

    Royal Copenhagen Porcelain

    This is the main showroom for the historic Royal Danish Porcelain, one of the most popular souvenirs to take from a visit to the city since Nelson’s time (legend has it he took some home after bombarding the city in 1807). Its ‘blue fluted’ pattern is famous around the world, as is its Flora Danica dinner service, costing upwards of a million kroner for a full set. The shop was recently refurbished and is definitely worth visiting even if you have no intention of buying anything.

    Designer Zoo

    Denmark’s renowned design mojo finds its contemporary home at this supercool interior and fashion complex at the unfashionable end of Vesterbrogade. Here, fashion and furniture designers, as well as ceramic artists and glass blowers, work and sell their highly desirable, limited-edition creations.

    Le Klint

    These stunning handmade, concertina-style lampshades are works of art in themselves. Every Danish home boasts at least one of Klint’s classic designs but their newer shades are every bit as interesting and rather more colourful.
