For her

The Stocking

$129

Everything in it fits in one hand.

Five small things for her, chosen to be found one at a time: a hand balm, a lip balm, a pin for her hair, a petite candle and a bar of chocolate.

Why we built it

The smallest gifts are the ones most often bought in a hurry. The Stocking is small and still chosen.

The pieces, and why

Tenoverten, The Cocoon Hand and Foot Balm
The one for the nightstand.
A rich balm made without petroleum jelly, silicone or lanolin: castor seed and mango seed oils, shea butter, squalane and aloe in a 2.4 oz tube. It absorbs quickly for a balm this rich.

ACTIVIST, A.M.S Mānuka Honey Lip Balm
Found in the dark.
Raw mānuka honey at 850+ MGO with mānuka oil and organic beeswax, in a refillable polished-metal tube, from the Topanga house ACTIVIST.

MACHETE, French Hair Pin in Alabaster
One pin, one twist.
Hand-sculpted from Italian acetate in alabaster, five inches long, for all hair textures.

Apotheke, Santal Rock Rose Petite Candle
Lit for one evening at a time.
Sandalwood with rock rose and warm musk, hand-poured in a soy wax blend into frosted mauve-pink glass. 25 to 35 hours.

Casa Bosques, Pink Peppercorn Chocolate Bar
Not shared.
Heirloom cacao with pink peppercorn, warm and fragrant with an almost citrus edge. 2.12 oz.
