​

Welcome to CKX Studio, a one-of-a-kind concept store nestled in the historic Blaauwlakenblok of Amsterdam, just minutes from Dam Square. This vibrant neighborhood was once home to master dyers working with woad and indigo, and today, CKX Studio carries on that legacy with a contemporary twist, where (almost) everything is beautifully blue.

​

Our carefully curated collection features vintage and antique fashion, artwork, and home accessories that transcend trends, gender, and age. From iconic American denim and classic French workwear to antique Japanese indigo garments and handmade Native American turquoise jewelry, every piece tells a story rooted in craftsmanship and heritage.

​

We’re passionate about finding unique pieces from the 1930s to the 1970s, with a focus on Americana and Southwest aesthetics. Explore our selection of vintage collectors’ denim, including rare finds like Levi’s Big E and Japanese selvedge, each piece thoughtfully sourced.

​

Our love for blue doesn’t stop at fashion. Discover our in-house handmade cyanotype blueprint artworks that capture the ethereal essence of the color.

​

At CKX Studio, we don’t want to be just a store, we want to offer you a journey into our world, and celebrate the art of timeless style and quality craftsmanship. Whether you’re looking for something old, something new, something fair, or something blue, you’ll find it here. Mindful, unique and storied.
