They mostly offer stuff from the fifties, so if you’re looking for formica, chrome lamps and teak chairs: this is the place for you. Jansen Vintage is one of those authentic corner shops where you can find vintage furniture and home decor items for a reasonably fair price. Which shows in the shops you can find there. Nowadays however, this district of Amsterdam is super trendy. The east of Amsterdam used to be rundown and somewhere you wouldn’t want to be found dead. Around the corner is the Sarphatipark for some peace and quiet, as well as one of my favourite pubs: Cafe Sarphaat. In the Van Woustraat you find another store on this list, and the area is ideal for discovering the slighly less touristy part of Amsterdam south of the canals. This is a must visit if you are all about interior design. Their pillows and vases are also really cool, with geometric shapes and shades of pastels. They have a beautiful minimalistic yet frivol approach to design of sofas, chairs and tables. Fest Amsterdamįest Amsterdam is a design firm born and grown in Amsterdam. Big chain stores are all here, so whatever you search for, you can find it here. The Nieuwendijk -and the Kalverstraat which this street flows into- are perfect for shopping. They also have a lot of stuff for in the kitchen, which is always a good thing.
I recommend the candles they sell a piece in cool colours. The collection refreshes regularly here, so stopping by once every few weeks is no overkill at all. The items are really fairly priced, are designed in a true Scandinavian manner and are always super handy. It is a chain of shops, which you can also find in other Dutch cities. Located in the main shopping district of our city, Søstrene Grene is a shop you just should stop by.
When you visit the Haarlemmerstraat store, you can walk from central station through the Haarlemmerdijk to the Haarlemmerdijk, which is filled with little shops for vinyl, vintage clothing, coffee houses and other cozy spots. The store front -to my opinion- implies that the store is super expensive, but to my opinion this is not that bad. They have location in the city centre, in the south and in the east of Amsterdam, so there is always a store nearby if you have 45 minutes spare to do some damage. Funky accessories and lifestyle items a plenty at & Klevering. This is one of those shops where you enter with no intention of buying anything, and then leaving with a shopping bag filled with stuff you don’t particularly need. In Oost, on the Pretoriusstraat you find everything from vegan lunch spots to more authentic Turkish restaurants. In the direct area of de Admiraal de Ruijterweg you can shop at local stores (also on the De Clercqstraat). Sofas and tables but also candle holders and vases are stuff to find here.
The collection is super colourful, which is super on trend for 2019. What is Hip offers some higher end home decor and furniture labels with their own unique style. Being in the impression it was an online-only retailer, I was confused when I walked past their store in Amsterdam-Oost one day. Me being a frequent user of Instagram, I became aware of this store online. What is HipĪmsterdam-West, Admiraal de Ruijterweg 51 It’s close to Indische Buurt and the Dappermarkt area if you have more time to fill and are in search for cosy pubs and coffee houses. The whole area is interesting for architecture lovers to have a stroll and take pictures of red buildings, railway bridges, houseboats and the interesting building on Funenpark. The store has a botanical vibe, an oasis in a more newly built part of Amsterdam. Perfect vintage items to decorate your space with, from industrial items to Hollywood regency glam. You’ll have to catch them bang in time, because they’re doors are open two weekends a month, but the treasures you can find here are worth it. I tried to put together a list with different kinds of home decor shops, let me know if I missed any! 12. Are you visiting Amsterdam soon? And are you curious where to shop some awesome home and interior stuff? Here are 12 of the best to my opinion. After calling Amsterdam home for two years, and having visited here all my life, I finally know my way around for cool home decor shops in this pretty city.
