A treat for yourself
Why not choose something lasting from a shop where you can see the maker’s face? Some shops also offer name engraving, custom orders or workshops.
Tips for choosing
- At workshops and brand stores, ask about materials and methods — it makes choosing more fun
- Name engraving and custom orders can take a few days, so order early in your trip
- Many shops require booking for workshops, so check their social media linked on the shop page
