Temperatures finally dropped enough for the first evening fire in our home - a small delight that makes the season feel rich and comforting. As the hearth crackles with familiar sound, our living room starts to feel more human: simply slowing down long enough to enjoy the warmth is its own form of restoration. As it turns out, sitting by the fire is an ancient human instinct, woven into our anthropology long before written history.
Early people gathered around flames to share food, tell stories, and pass down knowledge, making the fire a birthplace of culture as much as comfort. And even now, a glowing hearth calms the nervous system and draws us inward, repeating those old rhythms of safety and belonging.
So as you make time to sit and relax by the fireplace with those you love, we can help you add a little more comfort to the glow: a sink-in-soft chair, a beautifully carved yarn bowl for quiet handiwork, a handmade ceramic mug that warms your palms, a plush throw for deep winter comfort, and hand-poured candles that cast a gentle, amber glow. Each piece is crafted to turn the hearth into a haven—inviting slow evenings, lingering warmth, and the simple pleasure of being at home.

A study in quiet beauty, this cream-colored Wabi Sabi yarn bowl celebrates the elegance of simplicity and the charm of imperfection. Hand-shaped with a soft, organic silhouette, it cradles your yarn in a smooth, minimalist form.
Handcrafted coarse pottery with elegant silver gilding, blending rustic texture with high-end charm.
These stackable espresso cups are handmade with light brown speckled clay on the pottery wheel, and then adorned with slab-built handles. Each line is carefully placed by hand on the mug, continuing the design onto the handle. After being fired in the kiln, the speckles in the clay pop through and create a unique effect.
The wool is hand-spun, dyed and woven on pit-looms, to create earthy but sophisticated scarves, shawls, blankets and carpets.

This brown wooden recliner blends sleek, modern lines with the irresistible comfort of cozy wool upholstery. Its sculpted frame brings a refined, minimalist silhouette, while the soft wool seat invites long, unhurried lounging.
For hundreds of years, boiling water over wood fires was also the primary way of making tea, and also preparing it. Lapsang souchong is prepared by smoke-drying the tea leaves over a pinewood fire, imparting the distinctive flavor of smoky pine.
