Gunnarssons Träfigurer
In his Gepetto-style workshop, sci-fi fan and woodcarver Urban Gunnarsson cleverly carves statuettes (Skr950) of the famous and infamous. His sister Gisela paints each piece, which includes every US president since FD Roosevelt. Custom-made creations (fancy yourself in limewood?) take between two and four weeks and cost a significantly higher Skr4000.

Castor Konsthantverk
Sort of a one-stop shop for fine, high-quality handicrafts, this charming little store gathers work by a variety of different artists and craftspeople – you’ll find everything from sheepskin hats and woven coats to unique jewellery and leather wristbands decorated with silver thread in the Sami (indigenous Scandinavian) tradition.

Iris Hantverk
Among other things, this shop sells handmade brushes traditionally crafted by visually impaired artisans. Made of birch and horsehair, they’re as beautiful as they are functional, a principle that also applies to the rest of the handmade goods – linens, serving trays, soaps – available in the store.

Skansen Shop
A good bet for a complete Swedish makeover. Come here for handmade lambswool mittens, glassware and pottery, adorable jars of cloudberry jam, Swedish art books, jewellery and garden tools for that archipelago summer cottage you’re saving for.
