Andy Warhol Limited Edition “Collage” Watch

The Piaget “Andy Warhol – Collage” Limited Edition is a cross‑pollination of haute‑horlogerie and Pop Art rebellion. Limited to only 50 pieces, the timepiece marries Piaget’s 18‑carat yellow gold case with a rare gem‑marquetry dial that subtly evokes Andy Warhol’s 1986 “Self‑Portrait (Collage)”—an interplay of form, texture and color rather than a straightforward reproduction. On the case‑back, an engraved outline of the original artwork and Warhol’s signature complete the dialogue between craftsmanship and art‑history. The design feels audacious yet refined: while the dial suggests the collage, it doesn’t shout it—a quiet nod to Warhol’s maxim “Art is what you can get away with.”

Away With The Tides Umbrella By Calida Rawles

If you have the opportunity to see Calida Rawles’s Away With The Tides show at the Pérez Art Museum Miami before it closes 2 February 2025 it’s well worth seeing in person. The seminal work celebrates residents of Overtown, one of Miami’s historically black neighborhoods near the museum, who are experiencing the ocean for the first time at the historic Virginia Key Beach nearby. The now-closed beach was the first “official colored only” beach in Miami and a much loved location for decades. This umbrella features one of the installation’s most powerful images, and ironically protects you from the rain while celebrating the joy of being submerged in water. The umbrella is 34″ high and 36.5″ in diameter when open. The show’s catalog is both a great companion to the umbrella as well as a must-have coffee table book or addition to your library.

Everything Is Illuminated

When The Other Collection creates an edition of a book you know you are getting one of the most considered, artistic and deeply design nerd experiences in print. For this edition of Jonathan Safran Foer’s multiple award winning  “Everything Is Illuminated,” first released in 2002 when he was 25 years old, TOC called upon Paul Smith to create the book’s jacket. A single drawing was turned into a pattern by Susanna Dulkinys, which looks amazing in letterpress. Type designer René Bieder’s “Vitruv” font was selected to complement Safron’s centuries-spanning story. Their editions are set digitally and their lasersetter then generates letterpress plates which are then run on their 1954 Original Heidelberg Cylinder press. Then there’s the 90 gsm paper by Schleipen Werkdruk & Gmund, a linen wrapped cover and the author’s signature on each of the 998 books in the edition. For you or anyone on your gift list who cares about great books printed in the most thoughtful manner, it’s a considered addition to any library.
