If you're on the hunt for an Amsterdam souvenir, and after something a touch more bespoke than the classic fridge magnet, or baseball hat, head to Eddy Varekamp. Creating original watercolour paintings and prints, this local gallery makes for the perfect memoir of our special city. 

This stunning little boutique holds Sabrina Meijer’s collection of sustainable clothing. REYÈM puts quality before quantity, releasing timeless pieces in small drops. Keep an eye out on their Instagram for what's up next!

If we’re honest, we’d say that Amsterdam is far better known for its museums than for its galleries. With that said, there are a few galleries that never fail to impress us with their well-curated exhibitions. One such gallery is the Grimm Gallery. We adore its sleek, minimalist interiors and its terrific collection of contemporary art. Pop in and take in the latest exhibitions. Are you further afield? They also have outposts in London and New York.

When you’re living in (or merely visiting) a city that’s as chilly as Amsterdam for so much of the year, you’ve got to outfit your wardrobe with lots of beautiful, warm textiles. Khasto is a great shop that sells lovely handmade cotton-cashmere textiles, from pyjamas to throw blankets to wraps. Pick up one of their adorable sleepmasks for the flight home & thank us later.
