Ironwood Gourmet's new Grind Design Mills bring a new twist to the table. The mills come in four shapes and feature segments that can be rotated individually; each rotation not only grinds your salt or pepper with a ceramic mechanism, it also creates a unique "sculpture." The mills come in two sizes (7 3/4" and 10") and light or dark bamboo.
Their new Tapas set (below) features a three piece system for serving small plates in a party setting. The core holds small plates, which can be easily separated and then placed on top of a wine glass; the fitted bottom of the plate sits perfectly in the glass, allowing guests to eat comfortably with one hand while securely holding their glass and plate with the other. Smart.
Visit Ironwood Gourmet for more information on pricing and availability.

From the newly-opened Look boutique in SF, these handmade cozies have all the warm appeal of a sweater grandma made with an offbeat Dr. Seuss shape. According to the site, they're intended for vases but we think they'd be well-suited for dressing up a different household object that holds water and plant matter. With unusual colorways, ruffles and perforated weaves, they also hold their...
The Mystic Wall Clock is a quiet addition to the new crop of products on Personal Interior Design, the Swedish internet shop. With no numbers and barely discernible hands, it's certainly not the most efficient timepiece. But what it lacks in logical components, it makes up for in eeriness. Designed by Matt Carr for Umbra, the clock's hazy finish lends an ethereal notion to...
Few stores out there offer to give you just what you want in bed, but a great little shop in Vancouver called "Bed" (that also sells online) has made that its motto. For several years, Bed has been offering some of the most unique bedding available by making products that are all about dramatic patterns and brilliant colors. I love the endless combinations of...
Alessi's classic wire basket has graced the counters and tables of the terminally chic since its debut in 1951. At MoMA's request Alessi has developed a slight variation of these baskets, coating the stainless steel in brightly colored epoxy-polyester paint for the two limited edition styles. The Alessi square red wire basket ($110) and round yellow wire basket ($85) are available exclusively from the...
New from the generations-old family glassware-makers Riedel, this series of decanters takes its inspiration from birds for a collection that's as striking as it is functional. Designed by Maximillian Riedel (also responsible for leading the stemless revolution) and his father Georg and handmade by artisans in their Austrian factory, the leaded crystal vessels are all aerodynamic lines and dramatic dimensions. While the Swan (above...
