Yes, it is touristy!
Yes, it is odd, nowhere finding anything that looks like it.
Yes, it is merchandising, calling the tourist to sell common crafts.

All over Bornholm, there are converted farms and harbour warehouses selling a huge amount of very good handicraft of all kinds. There are international Danish designers such as Bo Bendixen with his cheerful textiles and clothing in Snogebaek and there are unknown local artists making just that little something you might fall for.

Twice in Bornholm, with pleasure. I couldn't imagine a few years ago that a remote island in the Baltic would "call me" twice. But it did, and I'm not sure that it will not happen a third time.
