A slightly kitschy but still lovely woodwork shop, where you can start small, with hand-carved Christmas decorations, and work your way up to beautifully crafted tables and chairs.

This charming antiques shop has so many wares, and such friendly owners, that it has more of the feel of a museum than a store. It focuses on objects from the beginning of the 20th century and, as such, has some lovely art nouveau pieces, from inkstands to lamps. It also has a "mascot," bulldog Adamek.

Despite the extensive collection of antique maps, prints, and engravings dating from the 16th century, this shop is refreshingly bright. Among the shop's treasures: beautiful Japanese woodblocks and a well-known map depicting Asia as the winged horse Pegasus. The shop also mounts and frames works on request.

This traditional antiques store, with its wares displayed in cases and on dark wood tables, specializes in jewelry and gems but also has a great line in silverware of various kinds. There are some really unusual rings and brooches, as well as pieces like a porcelain Japanese cat and a red hyalite glass vase. Established in 1991 by gemologist Martin Cinolter, the store also makes bespoke pieces, including a miniature version of the Czech crown jewels for the Dalai Lama when he visited Prague.

This antiques shop just off Old Town Square is pleasantly cluttered with art deco–era sculptures and furnishings, but specializes in Czech garnet and jewelry. Those with eclectic style will love the intricate brooches, turban-style headbands, and silk scarves here.

Home to hundreds of stores, a well-stocked food court, and an IMAX movie theater, the Atrium Flora is hardly the cobblestoned-street boutique dream you might have in mind. But for shopping junkies, it's a good bet for finding some local and international brands that are hard to hunt down elsewhere.

Shoes, glorious shoes! Five floors of them, to be exact, are housed in this shoe giant that has locations around the world but got its start right here in the Czech Republic. There's a clearance section on the top floor for bargain hunters.

The shop is imposing, and the sales assistants are positively forbidding, but don't let that deter you, because the clothes are worth it. Many of the pieces would make fantastic special-occasion outfits, so it's not surprising to learn that this eponymous Slovak-run designer shop dressed contestants for the Miss Czech Republic, Miss Europe, and Miss World pageants throughout the early 2000s (although the clothes are less ostentatious than that might suggest). If nothing else, it's fun to try a few items on and think, "Some day...".

This jewelry shop feels more like a gallery than a shop, with its statement pieces gleaming in the light. But don't be put off; it's a family-run business and the staff are friendly. The carefully curated sculptures and accessories are typified by an amazing use of metal and precious stone.

This vintage clothes shop, tucked down a Žižkov side street, sells retro womenswear, antique jewelry, leather and fabric bags, and more. It also has some random Czechoslovakian curios, from ceramics to clocks. It's only open from 12 to 5, and only five days a week, so plan your visit in advance.

One of Prague's hippest shopping experiences, BOHO has in recent years morphed from perennially popular pop-up to Vinhorady mainstay. The center of the space is dominated by a cool café-bar serving brunches and booze, while the vintage fashion items and other designer trinkets fill shelves on the walls.

This behemoth of a music store is situated underground, somewhere between the Metro station and the street, giving it an intriguing cavelike atmosphere. This is the best place to purchase Czech music and films, and there is a limited supply of English-language media, too.

Organic body and bath products here, like "lettuce and olive oil" soap, are crafted from fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs on a rural Czech farm. Inside the spacious and fragrant store there are myriad other all-natural products that make charming gifts for those back home, including tempting chutneys and condiments.

There is a nice sense of high drama here, with black and white clothes (mainly) making dramatic silhouettes in this chic shop. A good option for something a little bit more high-end, but still authentically Czech.

The shop logo (it looks more like (C)over than Coverover) should give you a clue: this is an interiors shop with design chops that's not afraid to have fun. Set up by a French man and his Czech wife, products are available from across Europe and are varied and interesting, from the fig room scent by Geodesis that also gives the boutique its fragrance to the parrot earrings from Nach, among the cool bags, coasters, rugs, and cushions.

Located inside the SmetanaQ building, a gallery-cum-café-cum–design space right on the river, this fashion and interior design shop showcases the best of Czech design. Some of the artists work in the building's Bottega project on the second floor, and others are located elsewhere, but if you're looking for the most up-to-the-minute Czech design work out there—anything from chic handbags to modernist posters and unusual earrings—get it right from the source here. There's a great assortment of ubercool vases, in particular: much better than an "I love Prague" sweater.

Half of the world's population wears jeans every day, reasoned the bloke-y team behind this hip denim shop, so surely there is a gap in the market for a cool, quality denim brand in Prague's Staré Mĕsto. They weren't wrong, and it doesn't hurt that their shop—and the team behind it—is fun; they're often found sipping a beer on the street underneath the horse's head mounted by the shop entrance at 6 pm, as the evening shoppers approach.

In her chic studio close to the river, Czech designer Denisa Nova shows off carelessly sexy clothing that is both wearable and luxurious. Slouchy dresses, velour trousers, and an occasional pop of color (think a bright pink shirt dress) seal the effortless deal. You can get a personal consultation with the designer if you book ahead.

Central Europe's answer to Sotheby's, this world-renowned auction house was founded in Austria in the early 1700s and set up shop in Prague in 1992. It's a serious antiques haunt for serious collectors, so prices are quite steep and items are appropriately opulent. The decorative dishes and sculptures, 19th-century paintings, ornate furniture, jewelry, and watches are worthy investments.
