Wood Salt + Pepper Shakers

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Warm and homey, this Wood Salt + Pepper Shakers set from Domestic Aesthetic sort of looks like something your hippy parents might have utilized, but I like the basic, casual feel. Both pieces are made from reclaimed wood (poplar for the salt, walnut for the pepper) and feature a natural cork stopper.

Perch! Tray Tray

First to recommend

Description

I've never been a huge fan of serving trays, as they just don't generally seem that interesting, but I love the shape of this Tray Tray, designed by Amy Adams, aka Perch! Low-fire ceramic with a non-toxic glaze, this piece is also versatile enough to hold change, keys, or anything you need to present or collect.

Bamboo Sideboard Stagger Shelf by Brave Space

First to recommend

Description

All through 2006, you loved the "Tetris Shelves" and begged Brave Space to take the design somewhere else but feared it would never happen. Think again.

Brooklyn Coaster Set

First to recommend

Description

We've seen a lot of very promising Brooklyn-based design over the past few years, and this coaster set from Sesame Letterpress takes pride in the culture. Like all coasters produced in the collection, these are hand-pressed on heavyweight and durable beverage board that is both absorbent and features rubber-based inks that won't bleed.

Brave Space Tetrad Bamboo

Description

Here's a green variation on what may be that most famous Brave Space design (at very least, among geeks). Contrasting amber and blonde bamboo add a nice touch of character
