Hello,I wil be visiting Copenhagen and I need your help in finding must visit places/shops etc for Danish, Scandinavian design furnitures and home products. What are some musts visit stores and shops for furnitures and home accessories? I am also interested in purchasing vintage Danish furnitures. Are threre any wholesale or retail vintage furniture shops in Copenhagen that's worth a visit? Any information would be much appreciated.
Roxy Klassik is a big dealer. I know there are others but I haven't been there in 9-10 years so I'm not sure what's current info.
If you see a shop sign reading "Genbrug", you should pop in for a look. These are thrift stores and you might find some small treasures at least, and sometimes they have the odd piece of furniture that's worth buying. I miss shopping in the genbrug shops.
Roxyklassik.dk as mentioned. They have a very small store in the center of Copenhagen which is nothing special, but then they have a huge warehouse just outside Copenhagen (easy accessible by metro). Their stock is quite impressive, however they are expensive.
Then there's houseofdesign.dk.
Klassik.dk, jdalgaard.dk and secherfineart.com are all located on the same street called Bredgade (near Nyhavn). This street also have 2 other great stores with vintage Danish design in the basements of #12 and #15, though they don't have websites.
Make sure to visit the Danish Design Museum at Bredgade #68. It's absolutely fantastic!
I can also recommend 'GC Antik' at Silkeborggade 3 (+45 35 26 85 83) and 'Epokikon' at Nordre Frihavnsgade 65 (+45 20 85 88 43). They don't have websites but both stores are only a minute's walk from each other and located on Østerbro (zipcode 2100). It's not far from the city center and only 5 minutes' walk from Nordhavn Station.
For furniture in particular, you should visit 'B&W Hallerne' on Refshalevej 163 (gate 25) in 1432 København K. It's only open every other weekend but the old ship-building complex has several large dealers of vintage design furniture at the back. If you tell me when you visit Copenhagen, I can find out if it's open.
Make sure to call before you visit as some stores have limited opening hours.
For a general look at various vintage dealers across Denmark and their stocks, look here:

I was there this past summer and all of the suggestions above are great. I'd also reccomend a trip to Illums Bolighus (not vintage-but its an amazing department store with furniture, homewares, etc). The Danish design museum was incredible (not sure if the Wegner exhibit is still there) and if you have time go visit the Finn Juhl house. It is a magical place and was the highlight of my trip. We took a train to a bus and then walked....and it was well worth the trip. I have kids and we took them to Tivoli (which I would have enjoyed even if I didn't have kids) and the experimtarium city (no need to go there if you don't have kids).
Hi, im also from Denmark. There´s a lot of Danish Furniture stores, favorite ones houseofdesign and royaldesign.
It depends on what type of style you are looking for. If i searching on the web for interior design i often go to http://www.timelesshome.dk , they list some danish furinture shops.
Would also recommend Illums Bolighus like the above comment. Was there in july, definetly worth it. Not only to buy but for inspiration aswell.
Good luck 🙂
May I suggest, that you have a look at Google - just type in the keywords "danish design stores copenhagen" and the first link will be visitcopenhagen, that contains a detailed view of all the places where you'll be able to buy and sell designer furniture.
Amongst the most mentionable:
Klassik.dk
Jdalgaard.dk
Secherfineart.dk
Timelesshome.dk
and many more! Just go to Google and they will have an entire list for you!
I hope this helped a bit?
Kind regards

I am spending a week in Copenhagen, so for future reference:
* Bredgade: high end stores with a fantastic selections. It is not the place to look for a bargain but rather for a rare piece. Klassik Moderne Møbelkunst (Bredgade 3) is a real treat for the eyes.
* Ravnsborgade: is a small street in the Nørrebro district which is packed with antique stores. Not so many furniture but a lot of Royal Copenhagen, Holmegaard, lamps, etc. Furniture wise and with some exceptions, I haven't seen anything too exciting there anyway. Beware that the shops have rather erratic opening hours.
Actually there are a few other antique shops in Nørrebro and a few "Genbrug" shops (plus a lot of really cool bars and cafés), it is well worth wandering around. There is a small shop specialized in vintage lamps (Hot Kotyr, Nørrebrogade 76) that is really worth a visit.
