Cool stuff for coolish people.
STUFF WE LOVE…
Soft butter, always. No refrigeration required.
The butter keeper is an old idea that never stopped being a good one: a water seal between the crock and the lid keeps butter fresh on the countertop for days, perfectly spreadable and ready whenever you need it. This one is handmade by Three Plumes in Glow, a semi-matte bright cobalt blue with a painterly glaze that goes on thicker in some places, thinner in others. Every piece is a little different.
Pack a stick of room temperature butter into the lid, fill the crock halfway with water and a pinch of salt, and you're done. High fire white stoneware, 100% lead-free glazes, dishwasher safe.
3.8" x 3.8" x 4". Holds one stick of butter.

It's a concrete banana. You know you want it.
Ripe yellow, freckled just like the real thing, and made from concrete and recycled glass. Set it on a bookshelf, a coffee table, a desk — anywhere that could use a little personality and zero explanation. It just sits there being exactly what it is, and that's enough.
Handmade in small batches by pretti.cool. 7" × 1.5" × 1.5"
Handblown from recycled glass by artisans in Bogotá, Colombia, this bedside carafe comes in two stunning colorways, including seaglass (a beautiful auqa) and sunflower (bicolor amber and aqua) — the kind of glass that catches light and earns compliments. The mini tumbler rests right on top, doubling as a lid when not in use. Fill it with water, wine, or juice. Set it on a nightstand, a dining table, or a shelf. It looks good everywhere.
Available as a carafe only, carafe + 1 mini glass, or carafe + 2 mini glasses.
Details:
Carafe: 8" H × 3.5" W | 28 oz
Mini Tumblers: 2.75" H × 2.5" W | 4 oz
Dishwasher safe. Lead and cadmium-free.
Each piece is handmade using traditional glassblowing techniques. Slight variations in color, shape, and size are natural and part of the character of handcrafted goods — every piece is genuinely one of a kind. The use of recycled glass may also result in subtle color variations from batch to batch.

Salt air, warm wood, and the feeling of having nowhere to be until Monday.
Montauk opens bright — bergamot, lychee, a little vanilla — then settles into cedarwood, juniper, and white musk that feels like being close to the water without being wet. Coastal and refined, the kind of scent that makes a living room feel like a summer house. The founder calls it the scent of the summer. She's probably right.
Hand-poured in small batches in Minnesota using a clean coconut and soy wax blend. Lead-free cotton wick, vegan, cruelty-free, phthalate-free, and paraben-free. 8 oz.
Top notes: vanilla, amber, musk, bergamot, lychee. Middle notes: woods, juniper berry, sweet cedarwood. Base notes: nutmeg, coriander, white musk.
Burn tips: light for at least two hours on the first burn. Trim your wick every time. The full melt pool develops as the candle burns down.
