Chic Finds: L'Objet

A lot of people really liked my gold lizard magnifying glass and letter opener from L'Objet which I found at Saks. I also bought the bejewelled crocodile napkin rings in silver and black from Bergdorf's (photo above.) I first saw these napkin rings in the New York Times where they asked Colin Cowie to dress a table Oscar's style and he picked the crocodile napkin rings but in gold and emerald.

I am now in love with L'Objet and I look forward to owning more of their pieces.

These wine stoppers are divine.

A pagoda shaped napkin ring. It also comes as a salt and pepper shaker.

Chic Comeback

Mrs John L Strong stationery is back in business. I discovered this because I took the chance of going to their shop on Madison Avenue and was pleasantly surprised to find them open. Last September, news came that they closed. The people at Mrs Strong told me that the company has a new financial backer and that they have resumed operations.

While at the shop, I picked up note cards with a shell motif and envelopes lined in orange. I also bought menu cards with a Chinese pagoda design.

The gold lizard magnifying glass and letter opener are from L'Objet which I found at Saks. And the orange shagreen pencils are from Dransfield & Ross.
