The Scandanavian countries of Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Iceland and Norway have long traditions of creating stunning objects for living. You can see how these techniques have evolved from their folk art roots into exceptional modern design pieces that have an innate sense of joy—a bit of warmth in a long, dark Nordic night. Proprietors Fredrik Larsson and James Anthony bring the best of the region to their boutique in Williamsburg. They carry many iconic brands such as Marimekko, Iittala, Stelton, and Royal Copenhagen.

Scandanavian Grace features artists such as Iceland’s Vik Prjonsdottir in its adjoining gallery space, and also carries a full selection of sofas, tables, and chairs from Scandanavian manufacturers.
