The Yale Center for British Art Museum Shop carries items made in (no big surprise here) Great Britain. Cards and postcards are reproductions of artworks in the collection. Numerous prints as well as reproductions from the collection of works by artists such as George Stubbs and Turner & Constable can be purchased framed, and make a very elegant gift. A number of the prints reflect British sporting art (Tally ho!).
Toys, from the classic Paddington Bear or Beatrix Potter to the more contemporary Flower Fairies by Cicely Mary Barker, occupy a corner of the shop also stocked with handmade toys made in England. Many items in the shop are reasonably priced, from the unusual sporting art mouse pads to the more elegant picnic baskets for four. The shop also carries leather goods, burl wood frames and clocks and jewelry. Contemporary handmade glass and pottery is another shop specialty along with books that reflect the museum's collections.
