22 Online Shops with Microbiology Gifts

Microbiology love. It’s a thing. And quite a few artists have created products that give microbe enthusiasts a chance to express their love for this subject. But who are all of these artists? How do you find them?

Don’t worry, I’ve done the work for you. I went searching for microbial-centric artists and online shops and asked microbe lovers on Twitter for their input. Refer to this list of shops, and you will certainly find the perfect microbial gift for yourself or a friend.

I’ve broken down the list into paintings, clothing / accessories / jewelry, variety (shops with lots of different items), and odds and ends.

You are in luck. There are SO many wonderful microbial gifts out there.

Not every shop on this list is 100% focused on microbes, but if they made the list, they have at least a few microbe-related items worth checking out.

These are listed in no particular order. Please enjoy!
