Merz B. Schwanen Henley


The three-season Merz b. Schwanen henley never goes out of style. It looks good alone, or layered under a jacket or sweater. (Nothing beats the versatility of a shirt you can wear to bed and to work.) The comfortable, pared down design originated at Henley-on-Thames in 1839, when professional rowers wanted a sporty garment that could move with them during a race. Hence, the henley was born.

This soft and durable cotton version features a fluid, seamless design, which is made using a loopwheel process to create one single shirt body without the need for side seams. It's woven on circular knitting machines dating back to the 1920s and based on a pattern from the 1930s. A unique panel on the underside of the arm creates a pocket for ventilation, as well as providing extra comfort and ease of movement. For a subtle element of luxe, the shirt is finished with mother of pearl buttons.

YSTUDIO Copper and Brass Pens



The rollerball pen is exquisitely matched with properly-cut weight, with smooth and steady feel when writing. The most qualified materials are selected, expected to be a lifetime stationary.

Brass materials will be oxidized with unique effects, with changes of users and environment. However, the oxidized bronze is harmless. Clean it repeatedly with bronze oil and then the initial polish will be revived.

Coney Island Camping knife by Horse


A part of New York history in your hand, each blade is fashioned from Ipe wood reclaimined from the Coney Island Boardwalk in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. Thanks Surname Goods, each handle comes to us milled into 1/4" blocks inlaid with bright maple.  The combination of quality high-carbon blade steel and the opportunity to incorporate a piece of Coney Island history makes each of these one of a kind knives a special piece very close to our hearts.

Handmade at the Horse Cycles workshop in Brooklyn, N.Y. This blade is made from the finest high carbon steel. Inspired by traditional Scandinavian blades of the past – the blade is 3/32 thick and will hold up to any task. A narrow Scandi Grind runs the length of the cutting edge for ease of sharpening in the field. Each knife is offered with an optional leather sheath hand made in Brooklyn by Commoner & Co. The sheaths are just as durable and beautiful as the blade, made out of thick-cut vegetable-tanned leather hand sewn and fastened with brass rivets.
