Svied Corkscrew

First to recommend

Description

This corkscrew from Sveid makes the Rabbit look inexpensive and simplistic by comparison. The corkscrew from Sveid has fifty-two pieces that form a puzzle-like corkscrew. It is made of aviation titanium with a fingertip lever of 18 carat gold.The wooden presentation box is equally luxurious has a unique opener with invisible hinges. Each one is made on order and the presentation box can be personalized with your choice of wood and the color of the shagreen that lines the box as well as having the hinges done in gold. The fingertip lever of the corkscrew can also be cast in platinum. Both the corkscrew and the box can be engraved. The corkscrew starts at 50,000 euros. If you are curious how it works there is a video at the website that shows the corkscrew in action. Personally, I'd rather spend the cash on what I'm opening rather than the opener! (via Luxist)

Laguiole wine opener

First to recommend

5 people recommended this item

Description

I have spent a lot of time in France and actually have visited the town in the center of France where these are made. I have a wine opener made with olive wood that is beautifully crafted and is a great combination of design and engineering. I bought it in Burgundy, and think fondly of France every time I open a bottle.

Chocolate Toy Shop

The problem with a gingerbread house is that gingerbread is not always a fan favorite. Chocolate on the other hand, is always a crowd pleaser. This chocolate toy shop is completely edible including the snow-covered roof and candy decorations. The confection sells for $74.95.

The Grimani Breviary

First to recommend

Description

The great thing about having a bibliophile on your holiday list is that we are easy to shop for and that the holidays are the season for gorgeous, limited edition books. Check out the new version of the Grimani Breviary from Levenger Press. The name comes from Cardinal Grimani of Venice, who purchased this beautiful illuminated manuscript in the 16th century. The original can never leave Venice and is housed in the Library of Saint Mark. The Levenger version is linen-and-gold-bound and comes in a matching slipcase. It has 110 color plates from the original Breviary with extensive scholarly commentary. The Breviary contains a foreword by Ross King, a noted author and art historian. There are 2,000 copies available and it sells for $150.

We've mentioned Bali-based John Hardy company's commitment to the environment . The company is now behind a pilot project to plant bamboos and reforest Nusa Penida, a small island off the coast of Bali. Local families will be provided with bamboo seedlings and training in sustainable cultivation of bamboo and other hardwoods. To support the project they have created the limited edition sterling silver John Hardy Bamboo Collection. For each piece of jewelry purchased from this collection, John Hardy will plant a certain amount of bamboo seedlings on Nusa Penida. Each piece of jewelry is engraved with the number of bamboos actually planted. The two largest cuffs also have a special grill on the back that depicts both the bamboo theme and the Bali starling.

Valentino Side Bow Zip Top Satchel - Handbags

First to recommend

Description

Doesn't this bag look like a great big present that you are hoping someone will give you because you've been very, very good? Available in walnut brown or this gorgeous red leather, the bag sports an over-sized side bow that adds a lot of style without being too fussy. Plain handles and the lack of flashy hardware keep the look from going over the top and the result is a simply classic bag that you could easily wear every day. It has a top-zip closure and the reverse sports a metal logo plate. Measuring 10"H x 14 ½"W x 5"D, it is lined in black and has one interior zip pocket. $1795.
