As most women know, sourcing gifts for the kind of men who buy what they need, when they need it, can be a fruitless task.
Enter www.sableandco.com – a premium lifestyle website offering an eclectic range of offbeat and uber-cool gifts that will please even the most exacting of chaps.
The website was created by producer Annika Bennett and her friend, stylist Victoria Connor, who both shared the common frustration of sourcing great gifts for the men in their lives. All products have been cherry picked from around the globe, and range from vintage and bespoke 1950s cocktail shakers and kinetic sculptures to design-led circular hip flasks and hand-blown decanters.
Prices range from £8 to £499 to include guaranteed next day delivery. The site is also regularly updated with ‘new-in’ products and is committed to ensuring originality and an element of surprise with both classic and modern gift ideas.
Gift ideas include:
- Check mate – this walnut checker board (£149) is beautifully carved and made from responsibly forested walnut with spherical game pieces of die cast zinc, which nest neatly in the spaces of the board
- Boys with Toys – this vintage retro remote control robot (£80) is every boy’s ‘must have’ gadget
- Stunning Dutch design high gloss perspex wine rack – available in white and black (£79)
- Once upon a time… this uniquely crafted concrete bookstand (£69) can be used for displaying books or simply as a piece of art
Annika explains, “Buying gifts for men is a hopeless chore. What does one buy for the man who appears to have everything…? We realised there was so little creative inspiration out there, so we decided to combine our business and life skills to provide a simple solution for what can often be a thankless chore.”
What’s more, the on-line site is also a great resource for men who simply want to treat themselves. Whether it’s an item for their home, their desk or a new accessory, Sable & Co is the place to shop and be inspired.
