Alfredo Vase

$185.00

Designed by Swiss-Argentinian Alfredo Häberli and made from gorgeous green glass specially developed by Georg Jensen and the Glafo Glass Research Institute, the Alfredo Vase is the result of many visionaries coming together. Looking like something from the past and the future at the same time, its curves are exaggerated and delightful. The vessel (available in two very different shapes and sizes) is such a pretty piece, you might not even bother putting flowers in it.

One of our favorite online destinations for sophisticated tokers, Tetra has just released their first self-branded pipe. Created by NYC-based designer Jamie Wolfond, the blue glass pipe is made from incredibly high-quality borosilicate glass that doesn’t conduct heat—meaning the smoke produced is cooler and smoother.

Limited Edition Playground Labyrinth Watch

$9,900.00

We’re already enamored by Hautlence’s non-watch watch—a piece that isn’t what it first appears. Instead of telling the time, the puzzle-face encourages the wearer to slow down, take some time out and embrace their inner-child. The limited edition version, made in collaboration with Colette, is black and blue (like the Parisian store) but has been produced in a super-exclusive run of just five. Price is in Euros.

The Importants

$50.00

The tender portraits taken by photographer, casting director and creative director Kevin Amato—for his new book The Importants—honor the characters (mostly from the Bronx) he’s dedicated to capturing on film. Amato is a pioneer of the now-common concept of street-casting, and the images in the gold hardcover range from the recognizable Luka Sabbat to emerging and unknown names. Essentially though, it’s a celebration of diversity and fluidity—from sexuality to gender, appearance and race.

Black Dots Creamer

$32.00

Designed by Italian architect Paola Navone and produced by acclaimed porcelain company Reichenbach, this polka-dot creamer—part of a great black dots set—balances whimsy with function. This can be said of both the uncommon silhouette and the playful pattern. Global interests struck the Navone, which she channeled into her progressive, worldly work. The piece is exclusively stocked at the Philip Johnson Glass House design store.

Fragrance No 1 Natural Deodorant

$18.00

Despite all evidence that aluminum and paraben aren’t things that should be applied to the body every single day, most people do default to deodorant sticks featuring these ingredients—because they generally offer the most antiperspirant protection. After extending testing, we can testify that Journeymen’s Fragrance No 1 deodorant stick does offer the same antiperspirant protection most require out of a daily deodorant—and the cypress and cedar smoke scent lasts well into the work day. There’s an almost warming sensation when applying it. And the aloe vera, witch hazel, organic chamomile and essential oils make the experience altogether delightful.

Summer is almost over in the Northern Hemisphere (but is approaching elsewhere) so whether you’re making the most of the final beach and pool days, or prepping for those to come, this Working Girls beach towel is reversible and retro-vibed.

Made in the USA from 95% cotton and 5% polyester, the towel is primarily pink on one side, navy on the other, so it can be flipped depending on your mood or pool fashions.

Astronomer Double Spinning Coin

$44.00

A double-sided, pocket-sized work of art by Urban EDC Supply and graphic artist Billy French, the astronomer spinning coin features representations of the sun and the moon. Beyond the artistic motifs, however, there’s a game-like novelty to the coin—involving patience. If successful, one can launch the coin into a spin lasting up to 10 minutes. Each coin is crafted and individually pressed by Shire Post Mint in Springdale, Arkansas. And they come in six material/finish colorways.

Valley Tan Utah Whiskey

$56.00

In theory, High West’s Valley Tan Utah Whiskey expression is only available in the state of Utah at present. That doesn’t mean one can’t get their hands on it elsewhere. What makes it special, however, is High West’s commitment to an old time flavor profile—which they’ve achieved by utilizing more wheat (most of which hails from the northwestern corner of Utah) in their mash bill. An old time Utah profile that is, which back in the day was distinct from those from Kentucky and Tennessee because of its specific proportions of wheat. Ultimately though, this is an 87 Proof whiskey that’s still pretty light on the tongue with floral notes abound.

Profanity Greeting Cards

$15.00

Perhaps not made to give your grandma (depending on your grandma’s taste, that is), Not Another Bill’s set of Profanity Greeting Cards don’t technically insult the person you give them to—since the cuss words are crossed out. But the terms used—from “shit muncher” to “twat” and more—are playfully rude, and the cards’ design is simple but extremely effective. Inside, the cards are blank so you can make up for the swearing with a polite haiku. Each set contains six cards and envelopes. Price is in Euros.
