I HEART LUXE | Daily Shopping Magazine For Women

DESU Design just launched their brand new Surface Collection of tabletop serving pieces. The collection is inspired by natural geological forms, pure geometry, and principal designer David Scott’s time spent in Japan. We love the ultra minimal HUG ($118 USD) that reduces the bowl to its most basic function – holding items in place. This bowl would make a great gift.

We all could use a little more honesty and sincerity in our lives, but sometimes it seems so hard – thankfully the brilliant Dominic Wilcox has made it that much easier with a series of eight Honesty Stamps ($20 USD) that express what might be hard to say. Keep these close, and you’ll never again be at a loss.
