Alchemist is a relaxed and welcoming independent gallery and gift shop, selling a broad range of carefully chosen craft, art and design.

open Mon - Sat, 10am  - 5pm

When you need a small but special gift, or a more unique and exclusive piece for yourself or others, Alchemist Gallery is well worth a visit. Customers tell us what we offer is lovely, and refreshingly different.

A wide range of original art and contemporary craft is complimented by seasonal collections of design led cards, stationery, homewares, and accessories. We actively source quality work from local Scottish artists and makers, showcase the talents of many small British businesses and support fair and ethical producers from other parts of the world; aiming to be genuinely responsible and sustainable in all that we do. We love individual, one-off creations, to be surprising and just a little bit quirky.

We also host a variety of art, printmaking and textile exhibitions, and other creative events.

Dingwall is located in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. We can be found at 48 High Street, which has been a chemist's shop since the mid-1800's. Now lovingly restored by us, with many original features on show, it's a lovely space to visit, and browse our beautiful curated collections.

At our best ‘keeping it real’, we love our shop and local High Street, and want you to enjoy visiting Dingwall. If that’s not possible, we are very happy to offer a personal mail order service, and can wrap and send gifts direct for you. Our website and social media aim to give a good flavour of what’s on offer. Many pieces can be seen in our 'collections', and the range is always being updated. There is however much more in the shop; new work arrives weekly. We talk directly to our talented suppliers regularly, so know what's coming, or can even be made just for you. This all means we're quite good at helping find what you really want. Order online or just contact us for some proper customer service.

We look forward to seeing you in Dingwall or hearing from you.
