Each shop has a selection of gifts from pocket money toys to
hand-crafted scarves, glass and designer jewellery. A complementary
range of books for both adults and children completes a unique
shopping experience.
Museum shops
The museum shop at the National Museum of
Scotland is next to the Tower entrance. The shop has a wide
range of quality products, many of them commissioned and exclusive
to the museum. For example a quaich, a quintessential Scottish
welcoming cup, has inspired a range of products. Crafted in pewter,
it remains true to the original and would make a highly desirable
gift that would be treasured for years to come.
Other museum shops are to be found at the National Museum of Flight in East Lothian, the
National War Museum at Edinburgh Castle,
the National Museum of Rural Life at
East Kilbride and the National Museum of
Costume at Shambellie House, New Abbey.
The museum shops are open to non-museum visitors.
