Looking at everyday items
The descriptions feature a wide range of items, from notepads to fashion and make-up. It is precisely the mix of ordinary everyday objects that can spark recognition. You can look at packaging, shape and the differences between kinds of products, without expecting a complete history of the company.
A visit to a collector
The collection is offered through personal appointments. If you are interested in a particular product or subject, you can mention it in advance. There is no confirmed overview of everything currently on view, so do not make a special trip depend on an object from an old news report.
Agree the days first
Instagram @hema_museum is the contact channel mentioned. The visiting days given differ between descriptions and do not form a reliable current schedule. So first ask whether a visit is possible, on what date and under what conditions. Only set off once you have been given an appointment.
Before you go
Opening and visiting days are uncertain; get in touch via Instagram first.
