Scottish Design Gift Guide 2017

We've brought together some of our favourite Scottish designers (and a handful from further afield) for the 2017 Christmas gift guide

Feature by The Skinny | 05 Dec 2017

There's a wealth of design talent in Scotland, and Christmas offers the perfect opportunity to buy a piece of it for your nearest and dearest. Shop local! We say it every year, repeatedly – shop local, support your neighbourhood designer / makers. Not only are all of these products beautifully designed, skillfully fabricated and ethical of material, your purchases will make a big difference to individuals being able to pursue their dreams of small business ownership. It's a win all round, amiright? Each producer is linked, and you can find where to buy direct IRL on our guides to Christmas markets in Edinburgh and Glasgow
