Merican Dream Mug

Merican Dream Mug
How's your Merican dream doing? It may or may not be doing great, due to the current political situation, but perhaps you could use a little reminding that certain opportunities and dreams are still possible here in the good ol' US of A. Remembering that along with your morning cup of coffee/tea everyday might do you some good. The Merican Doormat is still available too, fyi. Dinexยฎ brand. Ozone-safe urethane...Read more

Roger Stool by Sika-Design

Roger Stool by Sika-Design
This handmade stool is made from suar wood, which, if you're not familiar, is a fast growing (and non-endangered) tropical hardwood. It has an interlocking grain that reduces the likelihood of cracking with temperature changes, and that's very good news for those of us that hope our furniture lasts longer than our pithy life spans. And did you see the price? Very, very affordable which is oh-so-nice to see. Use...Read more

Polo Table Lamp

Polo Table Lamp
An articulated task lamp is essential if you're at your desk in the early morning or very late at night, though let's hope you're not working too hard. Check out the Polo Table Lamp, with its small footprint and long, skinny arms. Three joints allow for precise illumination and smooth movement, both a must when you're in a work zone. A succinct shade takes up little visual space, allowing for...Read more

Switch Stool and Table

Switch Stool and Table
What's better, a side table or a stool? That's a tough one, so how about both? Bend Goods offers up the Switch Stool and Table. Add a glass top to the base and it's a table. Add a stool pad (in vegan leather) and it's a seat. The stool pad flips over for a more compact side table option too. Pretty handy to have around, don't you think? Material: Hot-dip...Read more

Trays from Kalon

Trays from Kalon
Need a few nice wooden trays for snacks and drinks and such? Turn your eyes toward Kalon's set of trays, in either bamboo or black walnut. They're nice enough that they could venture out of the eating areas and into the living zone- perhaps to keep your pocket contents corralled or your reading stack organized? The set includes a set of two nesting trays and three breadboards. Sustainably made from...Read more

Twin Carafe

Twin Carafe
This double-walled carafe is just about as simple as it gets. For coffee, use the center of the lid as a pour over set. Not big on coffee? The lid's ridged edge filters loose-leaf tea. Pretty smart that the lid works for both, right? Without the lid, the glass carafe works overtime to hold water, juice, or maybe even (if you're feeling nice) flowers.

Duck Duck Pillows

Duck Duck Pillows
Just so you know, the Duck Duck Pillows have a bunch of fun color combinations, and they're all kind of perfect for the sofa, or a reading chair, or as an accent pillow (or two) on the bed (don't go overboard*). My favorite? Color Mix 5 or Color Mix 3, I can't quite decide. Duck Duck Small Lumbar Pillow, $59.00 Duck Duck Square Pillow, $89.00 Duck Duck Large Lumbar Pillow,...Read more

Kime Shoe Horn

Kime Shoe Horn
Do you sometimes need a shoe horn? You know, that thing that helps you put on your nice shoes without crushing their heels? If so, get this one, because it's beautiful. Perfectly symmetrical and carved from a single piece of wood, the Kime Shoe Horn appears to be an art piece rather than a functional tool. Lucky for us, it's both. โ€œKimeโ€ย means texture or wood grain in Japanese and...Read more
