The Mod Collective
The second I saw The Mod Collective‘s porcelain collection I knew that if forced to choose one line for my entire kitchen this would be the one. Each piece is created by a combination of design software and 3D printers, then hand finished and glazed on the inside to make it food safe while the exterior is left raw. My favorite feature is that raw pigment is added to the porcelain slip, which means that if a piece were to chip you wouldn’t see white on the interior like most pieces.

Kiva Platters
I have a thing for beautiful raw materials, and these Kiva Platters are definitely one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. Each one is hand-polished by master craftsmen in Brazil, and then contoured with precious metals. The natural stone combined with sterling silver and 24K gold are are scratch resistant for use in the kitchen and have rubber feet on their bottoms to protect surfaces. but I’d just as soon hang them on my wall as art.

Kipik Toothpick Holder
This little hedgehog toothpick holder is basically the cutest thing ever. He holds 22 toothpicks and can either stand on the table or perch precariously on the edge of a bowl of your favorite hors d’ oeuvres! I love him.

Miir Tumbler
Check out the Miir Tumbler, a simple 12 oz. double-walled coffee/tea cup. But it’s so much more than that, each one provides a person in need with clean drinking water for an entire year and comes with a tracking bracelet that’s engraved with an identification number. Your personal ID number can be entered into the MiiR tracking system allowing you to see what project you helped fund, complete with interactive maps, photos, and testimonials from the water project site. The Miir Tumbler is being crowdfunded on Indiegogo right now if you’d like to become a supporter!

Fort Trays
Donna Wilson can do now wrong, and her Fort Trays are the latest proof of that statement. The design is based on storybook medieval castles, the trays themselves are then made from laminated birch wood in Sweden. Three color choices offer a *POP* of color for these dreary winter months, great for displays and parties alike.
