N° 01 · SCULPTURAL PUZZLES

Collection Nº 01

Sculptural Puzzles

Elevating moments of play, every day.

14 styles · $99 to $395 retail · classics ready to ship; super collection arrives Sept 9

Classic puzzles, rebuilt in solid stone. Geometries with a long teaching-toy history, from the flat Tangram and Tetris to the Soma cube, burr stars, and pyramid. Architecture that comes apart in the hand. Each begins as a sculpture on a shelf, then disassembles into a handful of carved pieces. Solving takes time, sometimes a long evening. Reassembled, they return to being objects.

"Clear negative energy while puzzling over a geometric brain-teaser, hand-crafted using vibrant gemstones."

N° 02 GEMSTONE GAMES

Collection N° 02

Game of Stones

Older than the screen.

10 styles · $69 to $395 retail · spin tops super forest solitaire and Super Tic Tac Toe arrives Sept 9

Age-old games, carved in stone. The dice are sized to throw with both hands. The spin tops are stone-bodied with a turned brass handle, finished by hand. Each comes from the older lineage of games that lived in pockets and on tables long before phones did.

N° 03 · JEWEL BOXES

Collection N° 03

Jewel Boxes

Storage as sculpture.

9 styles · $59 to $149 retail · boxes ready to ship; new dish colors arriving Sept 9

Jewels beyond the jewelry box. A carved stone handle set on a geometric wooden box, turned by hand from Peruvian Cachimbo wood. The cool stone anchors the lid, and no two handles are alike. Empty, the boxes read as sculpture; filled, they tuck away special things in an act of small ritual. The catchall dishes accompany the boxes, adding more gems to the table and a lower-priced way into the container story.

"This design project showcases the work of Peruvian crafts people, whose traditional carvings take unexpected forms."

N° 04 · CANDLES & INCENSE

Collection N° 04

Candles & Incense Holders

Slow burning for daily rituals.

14 styles · $59 to $189 retail · most ready to ship • new Casitas ship Sept 9

Stone holders for a flame or a lit stick. The wavy candelabra is one piece, organic and versatile, flipping for 2 or 3 tapers. The faceted version is more architectural, geometry over flow. The triangle comes apart in three: a candleholder during dinner, a puzzle afterwards. For incense, the sphere is bored to hold a stick upright, and the casita burns one through its chimney, then keeps a cable off the desk edge when the incense is away. The catchall dishes catch ash or wax beneath any of them. Stone stands in for the usual clay, and the pieces move between uses.

"Le studio de design D.A.R. péruvien a imaginé une collection de pinces à linge bijoux."

N° 05 · DESKTOP & CLIPS

Collection N° 05

Desktop & Clips

Objects that earn their place on the desk.

13 styles · $39 to $199 retail · most ready to ship • Casita arrives Sept 9

Objects for the surface where you work, and the things you keep in view. The brick phone stand holds a screen at reading angle, weighted to stay put, and charges while it works. The casita burns incense through its chimney, then coyly keeps the cables on your desk from slipping off the edge. The puzzle coasters interlock into a trivet when idle, then break apart as coasters when the table fills.

And the piece that started the conversation: a laundry peg carved from semi-precious Andean stone in multiple colors, true to the size of the iconic design. The classic clips hold what's worth keeping in view, a love note, the flower of the day, a favorite photo, even the fancy bag of chips you're savoring. The XL size is exaggerated on purpose, a statement piece for a desk or an executive gift, an object on its own on the shelf or suspended from the wall to hold a piece of a favorite artwork.
