Things worth keeping,
not just buying.
Gorgamel is a small shop for objects with a purpose: printed matter, desk tools, heavy cotton and the occasional oddity we could not resist. Everything is chosen by hand, in small quantities, from workshops we have actually visited.
- Small batchesUsually 40–200 pieces per run
- Restocked slowlyWhen a run ends, it ends
- Packed by handRecycled paper, no plastic

Four categories, no filler
We would rather have four shelves we can explain than forty we cannot.
01
Printed matter
Notebooks, posters, small-press books and the occasional folded map.
14 items 02Desk & tools
Rulers, pencils, sharpeners, tape. The unglamorous things that get used daily.
11 items 03Apparel
Heavy cotton, waxed canvas, one good cap. No logos bigger than a coin.
9 items 04Home & odd
Incense, brushes, trays, and objects we picked up for no defensible reason.
8 itemsAbout the shop
Two people, one storage room, no warehouse
Gorgamel started as a spreadsheet of things we wanted to own but could not find in one place. It is still mostly that: a short, opinionated list, updated when we find something worth adding.
We buy directly from the workshops, in quantities small enough to fit on our own shelves. When a run sells out, we do not rush to replace it — sometimes the right answer is that the thing was good once and does not need to exist again.
- Everything is stocked in one room and packed by the same two people
- Materials are listed honestly, including the parts we do not love
- Unsold stock goes to a local charity shop, not to a discount bin
Questions
The short answers
Anything else, write to hello@gorgamel.shop. A person replies, usually within a day.
Where do you ship?
Within the European Union, and to Norway and Switzerland. Shipping is free above €120; below that it is a flat €6.
How long does dispatch take?
Orders placed Monday to Thursday leave within 48 hours. Friday orders go out on Monday. Everything is packed in recycled paper.
Can I return something?
Yes, within 30 days, unused and in its packaging. Write to us first and we will send instructions — there is no form to fill in.
Do you restock sold-out items?
Sometimes. Small runs are the point, so a sold-out piece may simply be gone. Joining the restock list is a mail, not an account.
Is this a real shop?
No. This website is a demonstration and informational project: no goods are sold, no orders are accepted and no payments are processed anywhere on this site.
