We can’t contain our enthusiasm for John’s collection of special storage ideas. Think outside the box: our shop is stocked with everything from antique baskets to 19th-century leech jars. Antique chests, barrels, cork skeps, pouches and totes offer unique organizational solutions.

Ceramic boxes, lidded bowls, and footed stands from Astier de Villatte hold a special place on our shelves. Inspired by an 18th-century wedding box from their archives, Antoinette Poisson has created papier-mâché versions decorated with hand-printed and hand-painted domino papers.

Unpack our options here…

Our favorite way to toast the New Year? Bubbly filled hand-blown Astier de Villatte and La Soufllerie glassware. May your cup runneth over with all that brings you joy in 2026.

This December marks the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen's birthday. For a special edition of Austen’s novel "Pride and Prejudice," Barbara Heller has compiled a collection of nineteen letters written by characters in the book. The letters have been lovingly recreated by a team of calligraphers and inserted at the appropriate places in the story. In collaboration with John, five of these letters have been transformed into decoupage trays. Explore the collection here.
