Marble Menorah

$275.00

Made from Carrara marble, this ultra-minimal and contemporary take on the menorah remains faithful to its tradition. With nine slots for candles (one for each of the eight days of Hanukkah and shamash) this piece’s left and right lines also create an 18-degree angle—with 18 being another significant number in Judaism. Measuring 1.75 by 2.5 by 11.5 inches and available to purchase with or without hand-dipped candles, this is a glorious way to maintain tradition while also embracing a passion for modern design.

Eroticize Equality T-Shirt

$35.00

Gloria Steinem once said that we need to “eroticize equality” rather than women’s bodies. This T-shirt from Prinkshop makes the statement, plain and simple, for all to see. The best part about wearing this particular belief on your chest is that Prinkshop gives 30% of their profits to Lady Parts Justice—an organization that uses humor and transparency to educate women about how their rights are being removed, and encourage people to form alliances in order to keep each other safe.

Som Drinking Vinegar

$19.00

Pok Pok doesn’t only serve Michelin-starred Thai food at its two restaurants, they also offer concentrated drinking vinegar—a tangy concentrate that can be diluted with soda water, or put to work in cocktails. We’ve been fans of drinking vinegar (specifically Pok Pok’s) for years now and while the health benefits are aplenty, the brand’s flavors—ginger, pineapple, pomegranate, tamarind or Thai basil—make focusing on wellness (scientific studies support that vinegar helps reduce blood sugar spikes and the absorption of nutrients) even more fun.
