Back in Stock: Mjölk Guitar Stands

One of our favourite statement gifts has finally arrived back in the shop! Designed in-house and locally made, these walnut guitar stands are adorned with solid brass fittings and hand-wrapped leather cord. The height is also adjustable to accommodate various sized guitars. 

The Mjölk Guitar Stand began as a personal project to build a handful of stands for our own use and for friends. Little by little, people began to notice the stands in the background of our photographs and inquired about where they came from. We decided to do a small production run to offer them to musicians who have that special instrument they want to have on hand and on display in their home.

HOLIDAY GIFT IDEAS

We have rounded up some beautiful things as gifting ideas for the holidays…

Jonas Lindholm Mug

A comforting coffee mug in red clay with a glossy white glaze by Swedish ceramic artist Jonas Lindholm. The mug is pictured above with the Crux Blanket designed by Pia Wallen, another quality statement gift for the holidays.

Egg Shaped Candle

These candles are one of our favourite things to give as small gestures and also make wonderful stocking stuffers. Made from natural oils such as palm and canola oil with a cotton wick, these candles have no after-smell of paraffin. The candle has a slightly bumpy surface texture and comes neatly wrapped in Japanese paper.

Patchwork Christmas Stockings

We still have a few beautiful Christmas Stockings available from Ferm Living (now 25% off!). Christmas morning isn’t the same without the annual family traditions. The tone-on-tone patchwork presents a subtle, monochrome twist on colour blocking, and the look is completed with an elegantly understated contrast stitching.

Bottle Openers by Oji Masanori

We currently have two beautiful bottle openers designed by Oji Masanori. Oji Masanori is a Japanese designer with a special interest in the objects of everyday life—his design process involves careful consideration of the lives of its users and the manufacturing process by which it’s created.

Japanese Kitchen Scissors

We currently have both the Diawood and Toribe kitchen scissors in stock. These make a wonderful kitchen staple and a thoughtful gift. Each pair has the ability for the blades to separate, so that they can be cleaned and sharpened easily or used as box-cutters.

Superfolk Trivet

Made in Ireland and inspired by lazy Sunday dinners and the long shadows cast by a winter sun. This oak trivet is designed to rest a hot pot on in an informal table setting. The simple, satisfying forms are assembled from segments of wooden petals, bound together to create a flexible whole. The leather loop is attached so it can be hung from the wall when not in use. The trivet is pictured above alongside the Sori Yanagi Kettle.
