Anything Co. Maekake Japanese Traditional Apron
Don’t be fooled by this apron’s stunning design—it’s actually been used as a functional piece of workwear for centuries in Japan. They’re produced in Toyohashi, Aichi Prefecture (the last remaining area of production in Japan) and made from durable cotton that’ll stand up to frequent use. These aprons from Anything Co. are made on century-old Toyota shuttle looms (yes, the car company, which originally started out as a loom manufacturer). They’re colored with a rich indigo using resist-dyeing techniques, which allows the original white shade of the fabric to come through in the design and not bleed or fade over time. We love how the color fades a bit with use—typically, this is a sign in Japan of well-worn beauty. The thick belts are also colored with white and red, both considered lucky colors, and are sturdy enough to offer lower back support when tied in a traditional fashion.

The Qi Trio Petite Flower Set
These flower teas—technically known as tisanes, or caffeine-free infusions—are sourced by The Qi from small farms across Asia when the finest flowers are picked at peak bloom. The Trio Petite Flower Teas took over a year to create and source three different petite flower varieties, all with a range of flavors and holistic benefits. Pick from Butterfly Pea, sweet, floral and citrusy that steeps blue and changes to purple with a bit of lemon juice; Jasmine, lightly floral and fragrant with a hint of sweet honeysuckle; or Rosebud, nutty, rosy and sweet with a touch of honey. All three flowers are full of antioxidants and help to promote relaxation. To enjoy, simply steep one flower in hot water for 3 to 5 minutes, making sure it is fully submerged. From there, sip hot or cool down for an iced tea. Or, use these flowers to infuse simple syrup and floral waters, make ice cream or popsicles, or crush up petals and add to cookies or chocolate bark. You can even make tinctures, salves or potpourri for topical use.
Blomus Wine Decanter
Aerate up to two bottles of wine at once with the Blomus Wine Decanter, designed to both filter and ventilate your wine to deliver the perfect pour. Its large, wide bottom—a feature that separates a decanter from a regular carafe—gives the wine room to breath, while the stainless steel opening acts as a sieve to filter out deposits when adding wine into the decanter. Plus, the user-friendly precision spout is designed for accurate pouring without drips and keeps any residue secure in the sieve.
Sir Madam Oyster Runner
Sir Madam’s silk-screened Oyster Table Runner is a decorative addition to your table. Complete with a comprehensive list of every North American mollusk, this unique runner is handmade in India with finished edges that won’t fray and comes in a soft, natural color that matches any table. It makes a great gift and will be a statement piece while entertaining. And after using it, simply throw it in the washer without worry.
ChefSofi Cheeseboard
Create a stunning charcuterie tray in minutes using ChefSofi’s excellently thought-out cheeseboard. Complete with four ceramic bowls, four cheese knives and a two-layer swiveling acacia wood board, this German-made board has space for all the crackers, hard and soft cheeses, olives, meats, spreads and nuts that you’ve been dreaming of. We appreciate that the swiveling board reveals a storage compartment to keep all four knives safe, which is just as handy as the four ceramic bowls that are removable if extra space is needed to add more goodies. Take your entertaining to the next level or gift this board to the host/hostess in your life.
La Gondola Double Pasta Cutter Wheel - 2 Separate Blades
La Gondola’s Double Pasta Cutter Wheel is equipped on one side with a sturdy straight edge for clean cuts and uniform lines, and a crimped edge on the other for cutting frilly pasta shapes or making ravioli. It’s great both for making long-stranded pastas like pappardelle or tagliatelle and for cutting square-shaped raviolis. But unlike most tools that are made of silicone and plastic, this cutter is made from a durable brass head and beech wood handle that can stand up to frequent use. It’s built to last by artisans in Italy, so you can pass it down to the next generation.

Moroccan Woven Market Basket
Basket making is a centuries-old craft in Morocco, and these hand-woven palm bags from Essaouira, a coastal town home to plentiful palm groves. We use this understated woven basket as an elegant substitute for a bag at the farmer’s market, beach and everywhere in between. The leather strap is long enough to sling over the shoulder, and the roomy, easy-to-clean basket stacks easily with other baskets between market runs. As each piece is hand-crafted by artisans, note that the strap and basket may vary slightly in size.
