Christmas Gifts for Her
Finding gifts for the woman who seems to have everything (or at least everything properly curated) can feel like mission impossible. The good news? Scandinavian design is basically cheating at gift-giving. It has that magical combination of being beautiful enough to impress, practical enough to actually use, and just different enough that she probably doesn't already have it.
We've pulled together some of our favourite pieces - from Danish jewellery that works with everything to Swedish homewares that are almost too pretty to use (but absolutely should be). Whether you're shopping for your mum, sister, best friend, or someone else with impeccable taste, we reckon there's something here that'll make you look like a thoughtful gift-giving genius.

Pernille Corydon Aqua Hoops Gold
These beautifully fluid gold hoops from Danish jewellery designer Pernille Corydon are the kind of earrings that elevate every outfit. The organic, wave-like shape catches the light gorgeously, and they're substantial enough to make a statement whilst remaining elegantly understated. Perfect for someone with impeccable taste who appreciates contemporary Scandinavian design.
Bjørn Wiinblad Ceramic Olga Block Candle Holder Green
This charming candle holder showcases the playful artistry that made Danish designer Bjørn Wiinblad so beloved. The soft green glaze and whimsical Olga face bring personality and warmth to any space. It's a gift that says you've put thought into finding something unique - something she'll love and use for years to come.
Spira of Sweden Tote Bag Kerstin
Spira of Sweden is known for their witty, illustrated designs that capture everyday Swedish life with humour and heart. The Kerstin tote is practical, stylish, and just quirky enough to spark conversation. It's the perfect gift for someone who appreciates Scandinavian design with personality - and who doesn't love a bag they'll actually use?
Skandinavisk Mini Candle Gift Set Escape (Hav, Fjord, Øy)
This beautifully packaged trio of Skandinavisk candles is gifting at its finest. Each scent evokes a different Nordic landscape - Hav (sea), Fjord, and Øy (island) - transporting you to Scandinavia's dramatic coastlines and tranquil waters. Skandinavisk's Christmas scents are gorgeous, but this will give her a bit of everyday luxury long after the decorations have been packed away.
Dottir Pipanella Ceramic Wall Votive Scales Midnight
This striking ceramic wall votive from nordic brand Dottir is an elegant take on a candleholder. The midnight blue scales pattern is mesmerising, and the overall effect is rather magical. It's an unexpected gift - beautiful, functional, and with that Nordic design sophistication that makes a house feel more like a carefully curated home.
Lyngby Glas Set of 6 Multicoloured Shot Glasses
These gorgeous jewel-toned shot glasses from Danish brand Lyngby Glas are the kind of gift that gets brought out (and admired) at every gathering. These hand-blown glasses in rich, saturated colours add a touch of festive elegance to celebrations. They're also rather beautiful just displayed on a shelf just to look at.
Arabia Moomin Mug Love
We love Tove Jansson's Moomins - and this mug from Arabia Finland is perfect for anyone who appreciates the gentler side of life (or just really loves their morning coffee). These aren't just mugs - they're collectible pieces of Finnish design history, beautifully crafted in porcelain. Ideal for someone who deserves a bit of Nordic magic (and a reminder of how much you love them) with every cup of tea.
