Hi Everyone,
It’s that time. of year again…December has begun and before we know it, it will already be Christmas. Perfect time to start getting organised with your Christmas gifts – especially if you have to post them to someone.
This Christmas gift guide is a little special as it focuses on special local shops that I personally love, plus a couple of very special online stores. Stores you don’t necessarily discover every day.
I’ve split it according to approximate budget so there should be something for everyone – smile!
Keep scrolling for the ultimate 2020 Christmas Gift Guide.
The Ultimate 2020 Christmas Gift Guide
Gifts under CHF 100
Special Suenia Zurich jewellery, each piece is so delicate and pretty that it is sure to make the person you give it to of a far away country or Summer vibes…
Flowers – the perfect gift for the person who seems to have it all. Blumen Frisch is a great place for advice regarding the right type of flower or plant to give a special friend or relative for Christmas. I love their orchid collection.
Invest in your own health as a Christmas present or a friend’s too by investing in your first package of collagen supplements to get through the cold Winter period keeping hair, nails and bones strong.

Gifts under CHF 400
A bespoke bag or how about the experience of making your very own dream bag – Orlando Maroquinier has exactly that – check out his website to find out more.
A lovely patterned silk or wool scarf. You can never have enough scarves and Golden Carrot Shoes and more currently has the best selection in Zurich.
A bag with a great story behind it – Atelier Avanzar bags are not only stylish but hand made in Ecuador by women who would otherwise have no income. Profits go to an underlying foundation supporting women in need and sick children in Ecuador. In addition a school has been set up teaching women in Ecuador how to start their own business.
