We specialise...
​
It was and remains our goal to curate a collection of gifting of refined simplicity.
We look for the highest quality, natural products that are kind to humans and to the earth.
We hunt for items that are beautiful in form, design and origin. We are spurred on by the desire to showcase local, often smaller businesses that are kind to their people and community.
We also offer gifting that we hope will be valued and enjoyed for years to come.​
Our collection of gifting includes pamper, bath and skin products for men and women. Our rose bath oils are softly nurturing and so beautiful to look at with suspended dusty pink petals. Our candle collection is all natural in scent and wax and includes single or double wick options in glass or ceramic. A neroli, lavender, lemon and bergamot candle would be just right for a tranquil candlelit bath moment of quiet, scented bliss. Our incredible pre and post workout sports products are rich in botanicals, essential oils and actives like magnesium. A fabulous option for men especially, is the green clay cleanser enriched with Arnica and many botanicals including soothing Calendula.

We have a superb and sunny Summer collection starting off with a fynbos gin perfectly matched by a pure and low sugar local tonic from Barker & Quin which you can enjoy on a hot, long summer afternoon. One of our beach bags stuffed with a hand woven, indigo cotton towel, illuminating, tinted Dr Hauschka sun screen, savoury snacks and a Field bottle would be just the ticket for a day at the beach. While at home an ice cold bottle of Cederberg Sauvignon Blanc served with a linen sommelier’s cloth and shared with friends over snacks served on a locally crafted oak board sounds rather dreamy. Finish off a perfect Summer's day with a line up of ice creams in a cute ice cream cone rack.

For our Winter collection we have a cosy collection of snuggly Karoo wool and cotton lap blankets and throws that would be perfect to gift with a hand painted mug which should definitely have steaming and socially uplifting mesquite coffee (Mannabrew), organic Cederberg Rooibos or freshly roasted, award winning coffee from the eponymous Origin Roasting poured into it. Pick up your designer linen covered journal and you can spend a reflective time curled up in an armchair. We even have warming Spruce bath essence and winter soak salts to ease away the winter chill. A delectable Waterford Cabernet Sauvignon from the renowned Stellenbosch triangle famed for its red wine terroir, would of course bring remarkable cheer especially when enjoyed next to a roaring wood fire.
