Hello and Welcome to Iconic Edinburgh
Our original anchor shop had been trading in the historic Old Town of Edinburgh since 2005.
We had a long-standing reputation as one of Scotland's premier vintage and modern collectables shops. We closed down in January 2019 to concentrate on developing our website and our online sales.
