Perpetual Calendar

Last month I had the chance to meet and chat with Seattle’s fruitsuper design and fell even harder for their brilliant, thoughtful designs. And their latest is maybe their greatest. If you guessed it was an abacus you’d be exactly like me – but it’s a perpetual calendar! The entire piece is made in the U.S.A. with the porcelain slip cast in Texas, the the brass machined in California, the maple in Maine, and then all assembled in Washington. Right now this guy is sitting high atop my Christmas list!

Balancing timeless simplicity with sculptural tactility, this iconic counting calendar is hand crafted with porcelain beads, brass, and solid maple. Simply slide the beads to indicate month, day, and date – adding elegant repetition to your everyday.

Pop & Scott

Pop & Scott is doing it right, all of it. From the Dream Weaver light fixture with its mid-century vibes to the cool pastel patterns of the Beach House pot range and everything in between, I’m pretty crazy about it all. But the Dreamer couch, sigh, now that’s a piece of furniture that will be showing up in my dreams for years to come.

Son of a Sailor

A lot of great things have happened since we last checked in with Son of a Sailor back in 2013. I had a chance to meet William Knopp and Jessica Tata, the husband and wife team behind it all, earlier this month and they clued me in to the evolution of their shop. Lots of new jewelry and accessories rich with organic materials and inspired by geometry are making their faces known, along with fun pieces like wooden yo-yos, leather playing card cases, and beautiful cutting boards. It’s safe to say that my crush is only growing!

Recreation Center

Josephine Heilpern’s Recreation Center is a small shop with a focus on functional ceramic pieces. Her work is inspired by items that are designed to enrich everyday life, centered on practical design and simple forms. And while their functionality can’t be denied, neither can their sense of fun!

Slivered Marble Hooks

I’ve walked out of my house without my keys or sunglasses more times than I care to admit this summer. I’d love to hang one or two of these small slivered marble hooks near my front door as a last minute reminder to please grab me now lest you regret it later.

Kähler

Kähler was family-run for four generations, from the foundation of the Kähler workshop in 1893 until 1974 when the last generation left the company. Since then the company’s focus has been on following trends and adjusting to them, which they’re remarkably good at. I can’t get enough of their homewares and hope to add some to my own collection soon.

Pot Cradle

After years and years of lamenting my black thumb things have finally begun to turn around. I have about fifteen plants of varying sizes thriving in my home right now, and I’m quickly running out of horizontal real estate. That’s where the Pot Cradle would be a huge help. More modern than a macrame holder, these little bags would also help eliminate spills during watering (at which I’m basically a pro).
