Circle Back Vol. 20
Ten more gifts for you or your loved ones. Try to contain yourselves.
The Criss Cross Bag Designed by Los Angeles-based Brooke Callahan, it’s the unfussy everyday and everywhere bag. We’d take one in each color, but especially the purple.
Suggested pairing: Complete the set with matching pants.
The Pill Box Not the most functional, but certainly the most beautiful vessel that’s guaranteed to kickstart any vitamin routine.
Suggested pairing: Add on the gift of regularity with Seed Probiotic.
Citrus basket A classic design with a small footprint sold by Ridgewood’s coolest design shop, Lichen.
Suggested pairing: Help a loved one fill their new bowl with a regular dose of vitamin C via a Citrus subscription.
Juneday A dare-we-say chic cooler bag that's packable enough for a beach vacation.
Suggested pairing: Plane tickets to a warm destination ☀
Cliik The container that friend-of-Circle Back, Ian, swears by because it keeps his “brown sugar soft.”
Suggested pairing: A big juicy bag of Bon Bon Swedish candy. Pro tip: the website offers a ‘mix your own’ experience, analogous to their retail shops.
Toyo Steel Toolbox Offered in a range of sizes, these boxes can contain almost anything.
Suggested pairing: Lean all the way into the aesthetic with a useless tool for a very useful box: the floppy hammer.
The Open Tote A mesh shoulder bag with a just tight enough weave to conceal the contents inside.
Suggested pairing: Complete the set with matching pouches, which would double as great packing organizers for that beach vacation (see #4).
Trove Jewelry Box A serious upgrade for the person in your life who’s always dripping in the best jewels.
Suggested pairing: Something from Brazilian artist Fernando Jorge, currently the ‘jeweler in residence’ at their West Village shop (whose luxurious interiors echo the lacquer detail and gold inlay of their boxes) because you’ll need something new to put in the box, too.
Beaded Card Holder “A reminder that you love NY every time you reach for your card!”
Suggested pairing: A fun-sized holiday card to express your gratitude, desires, hopes, dreams, etc
Salt Sphere A double-decker salt vessel and gentle reminder for that friend or family member who is a chronic under-salter.
Suggested pairing: Kosher for the top and finishing for the bottom.
Another one next week. It’ll be a trip!
