Handcrafts and design

In the Vatnajökull region you find many products that reflect the traditions of Southeast Iceland. In the past, inhabitants of this region have been forced to make their own tools and necessities for everyday life, because of the isolation from commerce. This pioneer spirit is still very strong among the people and in this small population there are many good artists and designers. Here you can purchase handcrafts and local designs.
