Lava, Edinburgh

A great little gift shop.
If you want a gift thats a bit unusual you’ll be sure to find it here,from - cocktail accessories, purses, mirrors,t-shirts to lamps. They stock the likes of hello kitty , betty boop , beatles,elvis and other retro names. also have some nice cards and gift wrap.

This is the best shop to find that little something for the person you don’t know who to buy for. Lots of crazy and practical gifts. unique

A fab little shop on cockburn street with loads of great little gifts, funky jewellery, great bags, cigarette lighters, gadgets, nick nacks and retro tack so kitsch that it’s cool! This is a fun shop where you can be guaranteed to find a gift even for the most difficult person to buy for!

This is my favourite place to buy kooky, fun and interesting presents for my friends (and myself!). The shop sells a wide selection of bags, purses, jewellery, clocks, figures etc and there is literally something to suit everyone! The ranges they stock are funky and trendy and have great music themed gifts such as a range of Beatles merchandise. I always go to Lava when doing Christmas shopping and it’s always the gifts from there that I get the biggest thanks for! Last year I got my boyfriend a Beatles Rubber soul album cover wallet which he gets asked about every time he uses it, and I got my sister a compact mirror with a scene from the wizard of oz which she loved.
Definitly worth a browse when out gift shopping, although some of the stuff is a little odd, I always find something fun and interesting to give my friends as pressies. Its reasonably priced too, which is a bonus!
