Most museum shops are a letdown, filled with cheap imitations and tacky souvenirs. Fortunately there are some that offer faithful replicas of everything from cutting-edge architecture to millennium sold jewelry as well as items that reflect the spirit of their collections. And it's all available online. You can't have the originals, but here's where to get the next best thing.
British Museum
The shop at the world's oldest national
museum has replica sculptures to match
every décor. The winged head of Hypnos,
the Greek god of sleep ($1,018) suits serene
surroundings, and a head of Apollo,
god of music, would look good on any piano
($4,024). Eggheads will enjoy playing...
