Svenskt Tenn

Top choice in Stockholm


As much a museum of design as an actual shop, this iconic store is home to the signature fabrics and furniture of Josef Frank and his contemporaries. Browsing here is a great way to get a quick handle on what people mean by ‘classic Swedish design’ – and it's owned by a foundation that contributes heavily to arts funding.
