This shop is on the main drag of Karlstejn and features beautifully done glass and crystal creations. We initially stopped here because they had a huge sign on the door that said "We Ship." We had wanted to bring some crystal home and didnt want to pack it in our luggage, so this seemed like a good option.
The staff was very attentive, and gave us several options of items and prices to pick from.
What to buy: Bohemia crystal and glass can be found all over the Czech Republic, but in Karlstejn, the Egermann Factory Shop you can find a HUGE variety (all shapes and sizes, prices and colors) that give you ample options for shopping.
What to pay: The shop carries all price ranges, from very cheap to quite expensive. If you are looking for more inexpensive items, try the shops along the main strip. (They are a touch touristy, but still have some good finds if you do a little searching.)
