Provence Platters Lazy Susan — Medium
Meet your next heirloom piece. Provence Platters reclaims retired wine barrels from vineyards in the countryside of Napa or Bordeaux and turns each one into stunningly beautiful serving pieces, like this Lazy Susan. Like great wine, every piece from Provence Platter takes time and skill to perfect. Each platter takes four or five years to make, from drying out retired wine barrels all the way to using woodworking techniques, like elegant Swiss biscuit joinery, which strengthens the assembled pieces and prevents warping or cracking, seamlessly, without any extra hardware. This item brings added ease and functionality to entertaining (or even everyday dining) with its rotating Lazy Susan base—it’s optimal for use at a seated table. Its surface is completely food-safe, thanks to three coatings of beeswax on the oak wood. And each one is buffed to a soft luster and finished with iron handles, forged by hand in Brooklyn the old-fashioned way: by heating and hand-bending each piece. And the spinning mechanism is made from high-quality aluminum.
Every Lazy Susan is handcrafted and entirely unique (many will bear their original cooperage marks, which share the origins and construction of each barrel). These are some of the most stunning, elegant reclaimed pieces we’ve seen yet—each one is truly a collectible statement piece. Note: The underside of each Provence Platter piece may contain wine stains from its first life.
Shortbread House x Sara Miller Tin - Ginger
Now available in tins made by British home designer Sara Miller, known for her playful prints. Decorated with vivid colors and gold accents, these extra-large tins make perfect gifts or keepsakes. Many store brands lack the rich butteriness of true Scottish shortbread, ending up too gritty or pasty on the tongue, but these treats are truly authentic, handmade from a family recipe. Each one of these classic biscuits is richly buttery and tenderly textured with the perfect amount of crumbliness—with nubs of candied ginger sprinkled throughout that adds zip and a touch of pleasant chew. Warming ground ginger is incorporated into the dough as well, giving it an almost gingerbread-like flavor, but stays lighter and more lively without the addition of molasses. Their sweetness is balanced with a hint of salt, while the addition of ground rice gives these cookies a delightfully light and crisp texture. Dare we say, they’re better than homemade.
Tensira Full Apron

Made of 100% cotton using traditional looms with practices that eliminate fabric waste and highlight traditional Guinean practices of weaving. Available in four beautiful colors.
Vietri Campagna Collection Large Serving Bowl
Please give our vendor up to two weeks to ship this product.
With its wide basin and gently sloping sides, this hand-painted ceramic serving bowl from Vietri’s flagship Campagna collection is designed for serving pasta, soup, salad or a large shareable dish; you’ll want to dish up dinner quickly to show off the bowl’s painted interior. Pair it with Vietri’s salad plates or pasta bowls to complete your pasta night set. Inspired by pastoral southern Italy, every piece features a playful, hand-rendered painting of a horse, rooster, cow, pig, fish or bird, plus vibrant wildflowers or bright coastal algae native to the area. Terracotta, locally sourced from the Amalfi Coast, has been used for Italian ceramics for centuries: the first pieces were dried in the sun. But today, Vietri’s artisans make the Campagna line the same way ceramics have been made for 500 years, carefully firing each piece in a kiln to set its shape and unique colors.
Castillo de Jijona Marcona Almond Butter
Castillo de Jijona’s Spanish Marcona Almond Butter is the only one we’ve found of its kind—it’s made from 100 percent Spanish Marcona almonds, a prized, slightly sweeter, smoother alternative to a conventional almond. The flavor is buttery, rich and neutral, with its only sweetness coming naturally from the almonds. It has a velvety, pourable consistency, much different than the grainier, drier versions made from standard almonds; we found that very little stirring was required upon opening to reincorporate any natural separation of the oils. Try it as an ingredient or a topping for desserts, smoothies, oatmeal, vinaigrettes or vegetables. The butter’s creamy consistency incorporates easily into other ingredients.
Poterie Renault Bonny Vintage Butter Pot — Set of 2
Though the region is best known for wine production, the Loire Valley of France also once contained a secret gem frozen in time: Poterie Renault. Dating back to 1847, the French pottery workshop was filled to the brim with stoneware pieces, all handcrafted from some of the richest and finest clay France has to offer. And while the factory shuttered its doors in 2016, it left behind a treasure trove of salt-glazed ceramics that have become collectible items. Included in that collection, reminiscent of charming French country kitchens, these stunning butter pots, perfect for serving smooth, spreadable butter while entertaining. This is a set of 2 butter pots.

Inspired by pastoral southern Italy, every unique piece features a whimsical hand-rendered animal motif. Choose between a horse, rooster, cow, pig, fish or bird, plus vibrant wildflowers or bright coastal algae native to the area. Serve pasta in Vietri’s Large Serving Bowl and dish it up in these mix-and-match, dishwasher-safe bowls. Terracotta, locally sourced from the Amalfi Coast, has been used for Italian ceramics for centuries: the first pieces were dried in the sun. Today, Vietri’s artisans make the Campagna line the same way ceramics have been made for 500 years, but instead of using the sun’s heat to set each piece, each one is fired in a kiln. Careful control of the kiln’s temperature influences each unique piece’s shape and glaze colors. The Campagna line’s cheeky name refers both to the line’s inspiration—“campagna” is Italian for “countryside”—and Vietri’s origins in Campania, a rural, coastal region of southern Italy.
Kito Yuzu Extra Virgin Olive Oil
The Kito district of Tokushima Prefecture is known as the birthplace of yuzu trees in Japan, so it’s only fitting that Ogon no Mura Co., Ltd’s Yuzu Extra Virgin Olive Oil is made from fresh yuzu picked in the region. It’s why the brand’s name also translates to “a village shining with the gold of ripened yuzu fruit.” Locally grown without chemicals or pesticides and certified with a Geographical Indication, the bright Asian citrus fruit is pressed for oil within 24 hours after harvesting to capture the freshest flavor. This oil is then paired with mild, smooth Taggiasca Extra Virgin Olive Oil, sourced from Liguria, Italy, for a flavorful and bright final product that expertly balances sour and sweet notes. With an aroma that falls between a mandarin orange and a Meyer lemon, it leaves behind a hint of fruitiness and pleasant richness on anything it’s drizzled over. Use to dip bread or for finishing crudo, ceviche, soups, noodles, salads and more.

Graza Co. Squeeze "Drizzle" and "Sizzle" Olive Oil Set
Enjoy the best of both worlds with Graza’s “Drizzle & Sizzle” combo pack of extra-virgin olive oils. Grown and made in Jaen, Spain, the country where about half the world’s olive oil is produced, Graza uses 100% picual olives for both their blends of extra virgin olive oil. Use “Drizzle” for finishing, made from olives harvested by hand in October when they are still young, green and not fully ripe. The younger olives make an olive oil that is full of attitude, grassy and peppery, with a spicy zip that finishes a dish beautifully. “Sizzle” is for everyday cooking, made from picual olives harvested in December and January, when they are more mature and juicy. Once pressed, “Sizzle” is a bit more mellow and milder in flavor—though still with a grassy, peppery bite—perfect for roasting, searing, poaching, pan frying, baking and marinating. Both versions also come packaged in an easy to use squeeze bottle, so you can emulate exactly what chefs do in restaurants.

Kankitsu Labo Dry Candied Citrus Peels 5 Pack Sampler

Kankitsu’s—translating to “Japanese citrus,” is a fitting company name—sampler pack of candied citrus rinds ranges far beyond the common flavors of lemon and orange that you’d find in the United States.

Tastëlanghe Hazelnut Dark Chocolate Spread

Grown exclusively in the Langhe area of Piedmont, Italy, Tastëlanghe has been producing them since 1891.

Light in texture but deep in flavor, this spread has just a hint of dark chocolate and intense notes of roasted hazelnuts. It’s like Nutella, but less dense, far more flavorful, and with only natural ingredients. Use it to spoon onto ice cream, cakes, cookies, or any baked good or anywhere you would Nutella, spread on toast, or eat straight from the jar!
