Antique stores

Brandstationen

Trendy vintage dream

Style-conscious Brandstationen sells extremely high quality vintage furniture, as well as antique interiors pieces, lamps and lots of plants in a trendy mix. The store looks as though its stepped straight from the pages of an interiors magazine and is a mecca of inspiration for anyone interested in design. Don't expect any budget second-hand bargains.

 

Återvinnarna

300 square metres of second hand

Återvinnarna is a non-profit organisation which gives unemployed people and recovering addicts a second chance. The vast store is packed with furniture, brick-a-brac, household items and lamps and paintings. They accept donations and you can haggle over the prices. Well worth a rummage through.

 

Re: Deco

Several vintage shops in one

Re: Deco on Linnégatan stocks a sustainable and sought-after mix of vintage, crafts, design and art. Around 20 vendors share 450 square metres here.

Söders Retro & Design

Södermalm's retro hotspot

A well-curated selection of furniture and interiors spread over two floors and 130 square metres. There's always a good chance of bagging a bargain here. Keep an eye on their latest highlights via their Instagram, but don't forget there's masses more to choose from on site.

Cirkuläret

Modern secondhand

Cirkuläret opened in 2022, making it a newcomer among Stockholm's secondhand stores. You'll find modern, trendy secondhand here, with an emphasis on interiors details and furniture. It's run by a pair of friends, Sofia and Maja, who are passionate about sustainability and beautiful objects.

Svenska Armaturer

Antique industrial lighting

On the hunt for stylish vintage industrial lamps or trendy retro armatures? If so, you need to take a trip out to Midsommarkransen. You can find rare items such as hand-blown glass pendants by Hans-Agne Jakobsson from the Fifties as well as top quality, newly-renovated lamps. Not cheap, but definitely good value.  

Tid & Rum

Extensive retro selection

Tid & Rum in Årsta also sells furniture and interiors details from the mid 20th century. Browse among everything from characteristic teak furniture to cutlery and retro china.

MJ Retro

Records and retro objects

MJ Retro in Hornstull is a real treasure trove for record collectors and anyone on the hunt for retro objects and modern design. Delve into their selection of iconic LPs, furniture, china and other goodies.

Antikboden

Treasure chest in Västertorp

Since 1995, antique and vintage treasure hunters have been heading to Västertorp south of Stockholm to visit Antikboden, a little store filled to the brim with retro interiors and textiles. Get your mitts on everything from design furniture to vinyl and vintage clothing. Prices reflect the fact there isn't much competition in the area, but there's still a good chance of bagging a bargain. 

Kenth Lindström Modern & Antik

Hidden treasure

You'll often find a piece of furniture or object standing outside the entrance here to tempt you in - follow the steps down into the cellar and find a large locale filled with furniture, lamps, art and china. You can find pretty much everything you need for your home here - sofas, armchairs, tables, chairs, plates etc... the list is long and it's hard to leave empty handed.

Retro on the red metro line

Östermalm

Several streets of classic elegance

Around the smart streets of Östermalm you'll find several different stores selling antiques, second-hand and vintage items. Gamla Lampor means 'old lamps' and it's not hard to guess what this particular store sells. In the market for an Art Deco lamp or rare Sixties find? Then this is the place to come, but they also sell other items of furniture from the Thirties on. If you want to add to your collected of heirloom china or add a personal touch to your table setting we recommend a visit to À la Carte Antik. Sibyllegatan is also home to a number of antique shops.
