Object Le Corbusier x Tekla blanket

Le Corbusier x Tekla blanket
£665

Cosy up at home with this striped mohair blanket from Tekla. It is one of four blankets in Tekla’s limited-edition capsule collection inspired by the colour palette of Le Corbusier, the French-Swiss architect best known today for ushering in Brutalism and his concrete Cité Radieuse housing project in Marseille. Each blanket is hand-woven in Spain and signed with a unique number as part of the limited edition. We love the striped version, but it also comes in a delicious rose pink, green-grey and cobalt blue.

Object Begg x Co + Queercircle superfine cashmere scarf

Begg x Co + Queercircle superfine cashmere scarf
£195

In June 2022 Queercircle, a LGBTQ+ charity working at the intersection of arts, culture and social action, opened its first permanent space in London. In celebration of this momentous occasion, Begg x Co teamed up with British artist Jakob Rowlinson to create a collection of limited-edition, handkerchief-style cashmere scarves. Each scarf features a sprawling rosebush in an imaginary queer garden that sprouts miniature hands instead of roses that wave and signal to one another. Proceeds from the partnership will go towards Queercircle’s ambitious programme of events. We’ll take it in pink please.

Royal Salute x Kate MccGwire: The Art of Wonder
Price on Request

Forces of Nature, the first iteration of Royal Salute’s The Art of Wonder Collection, pays homage to the age-old craft of whisky making and comprises a limited-edition series of collectible sets conceived in collaboration with British artist Kate MccGwire. Each of the 21 sets includes a bespoke sculpture by MccGwire made of pheasant feathers and a handblown decanter of 53-year-old blend of Royal Salute, decorated with hand-engraved gold feathers. The set is presented inside a Scottish oak cabinet crafted by John Galvin Design. ‘The particular feathers that I’ve used resonated very well with the colour of whisky,’ MccGwire has said. ‘There are parallels between my work and the whisky making process — starting with a humble ingredient, we arrive at an end result that’s really quite magical.’
