Shopping for your best friend is one of December’s genuine pleasures: you know their quirks, their taste level, their fondness for things that spark delight.
Here, we’ve leaned into pieces with personality—Anya Hindmarch’s Diet Coke coin purse for the one who thrives on a playful moment; Armani/Casa’s tarot cards for nights spent divining the year ahead; Bottega Veneta’s richly glazed candle as an art object in its own right; Dior’s newspaper-print cardholder for everyday flair; L’Objet’s horse napkin ring for the consummate host; and Rag & Bone’s scarf-sweater hybrid for winter ease.
Thoughtful, witty, and a little fabulous—much like them.
