HAECKELS

Glass + Brass Incense Burner

$16.00

Appearing more scientific than spiritual, Margate, UK-based Haeckels’ incense burner features a brass bottom plate under a lab-like glass flask. Placing the flask onto the plate when an incense cone is lit will amplify the scent and push a puff of smoke up through the neck and out the top. (Doing so will also extinguish the flame, so be certain you’re finished before placing it.) Price is in Pounds.

Trufflin

Black Truffle Ranch

$20.00

Trufflin’s Black Truffle Ranch doubles as a dipping sauce and a salad dressing. The NYC-based brand’s consideration for the condiment’s thickness lends it its duality. Plus, the formulators toyed with the percentage of black truffle oil the entire composition should be—in this case it’s olive oil mixed with 1% black truffle concentrate. A blend of herbs and spices contribute to the overall flavor, and a new squeeze-top makes it easy to dole out the right amount. The brand does recommend that the ranch is refrigerated upon arrival and before first use. After it’s opened, it’s safe for consumption for up to 10 days.

DB Burkeman + Rich Browd

The Sm;)e Book

$15.00

What began as Harvey Ball’s submission for a graphic design job in 1963, which tasked him with increasing morale at the State Mutual Life Assurance Company, the smiley face has grown into one of the most recognizable cultural symbols. Its iconographic status extends beyond art, design, music, fashion and into areas of influence like emoji and plastic bags. Now authors DB Burkeman and Rich Browd aim to publish a 60-page hardcover book that celebrates the smiley face—based upon five years of research and including the work of 70 artists (like INVADER, Alicia McCarthy, Rob Pruitt, Curtis Kulig and more). It’s a strange and wonderful evolution (with an actual history dating back to 1700 BC), that Burkeman and Browd share brilliantly.
