Hand Tooled Leather and Mohena Wood Magazine Rack ‘Songbirds’

I’m always looking for ways to keep my home more organized and this beautiful rack would be not only helpful, but absolutely stunning to look at too!  “Songbirds twitter softly on leafy branches in an idyllic Andean portrait. Embossed on burnished leather, the cheery motifs grace a handmade magazine rack. Oscar Pastor crafts the piece from wood with two handy compartments to organize reading material. A handle of turned mohena wood carries it from room to room.”

There are some styles of jewelry that will never go out of style and pearls is one of them!  This set is absolutely breathtaking and the perfect finishing touch to your next special occasion outfit.  Thai artisan Matta designs the set of necklace and bracelet, which are both secured by hook clasps of rhodium-plated brass.

Pastel Green Throw Blanket with Fringes from India ‘Mint Beauty’

I love the look of a beautiful throw draped over the sofa and this pastel green offers the perfect pop of color to brighten any room.  The pastel colors of mint green, blue, eggshell, and dark taupe are carefully woven together in beautiful harmony throughout this comfortable throw blanket, made in India. Pursuing her passion for textiles, Seema designs this blanket, adding knotted fringes to the ends for the perfect finishing touch.

Handblown Glasses – Set Of 6

These glasses are so beautiful!  “This dynamic design is part of the Novica Handblown Collection. It’s a set of six highball glasses, crafted with traditional blown glass techniques in which artisans blow through a metal pipe while twirling it with one hand. They simultaneously shape the molten glass at the other end while expertly achieving a swirl effect in aquamarine and white.”  These 13 ounce glasses are remarkably consistent in size and weight, and each is absolutely breathtaking. 

I’m so happy with this glass set as they are so unique and truly brighten up our table setting.  They are solid, sturdy, and thicker than the typical glass so they keep the liquid in side colder longer.
