Cashmere is one of those classic luxuries that everyone should own. For us, we love cashmere in the form of a cozy, yet chic Rani Arabella throw. Rani Arabella is a modern company, having been established in 1999. Their designs reflect this contemporary feel with an endless variety of colors and graphic pieces, such as the Horse throw. But what sets Rani Arabella apart is the timeless, expert craftsmanship put into each and every throw.

All of these throws are made in Italy by artisans who devote their lives to weaving the most impeccable cashmere pieces. Combining their skills with only the finest fibers along with inspiration from the beauty of Northern Italy, Rani Arabella throws are not only beautiful, but also incredibly soft and strong.

If you are looking for the simplicity of a solid throw with a splash of color, the Capri throw has everything you need.

The Horse throw features a bold design with subtle colors and an opulent suede border.

We also adore the Roma throw for a little bit of texture with a classic cable knit pattern.

Whoever said neutral was boring never experienced the elegant beauty of Sofiacashmere throws. Their camel, grey, and ivory throws come in an incredible variety of textures and patterns with something for every taste. One of their ivory throws was recently featured in a lush blue and white patio setting on HouseBeautiful.com, adding a comfortable and welcoming charm to the scene.

Sofiacashmere is sought after around the world. Their throws and capes are adored by the most discerning customers, not only for their exquisite style, but also for their enduring quality. The world’s finest cashmere is first sourced from the grasslands of Mongolia and China, home to the cashmere goat. The fibers are soft but also strong and only the longest fibers are chosen to prevent pilling. For the design of the elegant Sofiacashmere capes, this soft material is finished off with fox fur imported from Finland.

It’s hard to choose a favorite, but the Campania throw has that classic cable knit look that is so perfect for winter.

The Trentino throw is simple and chic with incredible softness.

You can bring the chic comfort of Sofiacashmere with you anywhere with a cashmere travel set, like the Romagna.

Fur-lined cashmere capes and fur vests from Sofiacashmere are true works of wearable art. The St. Moritz Brown Cape is finished with luxurious fox fur trim.

Started in 1995 by Rhode Island School of Design graduate David Reiss, Match creates high-quality modern pewter wares using centuries-old methods in Northern Italy.  Match places value on true craft and artisanship, so their fine pewter pieces look equally at home in a Golden Age Dutch still life as on a contemporary wood dining table.

Match Convivio dinnerware has a rustic pewter edge with a clean, bright porcelain center that stands out from the rest of the dinnerware crowd.

Their lavish pewter frames, like those in the Lombardia collection, remind us of old Hollywood, but with a touch of modern simplicity.

Wine glasses from Match are perfect for an intimate dinner for two or a feast for one hundred. They can be easily dressed up or down for any tablescape. The Crystal wine glass is refined, yet not ostentatious.

Match also makes beautiful flatware and napkin rings to accessorize the dining table. Gabriella Flatware is stunning and Round Napkin Rings complement it well.

We love a clean home, and we want to keep the earth clean, too. But we were disappointed with the quality of natural cleaners. That is, until we found The Laundress! Their naturally-derived cleaning products work great and they are safe for the environment.

The Laundress was started by owners Lindsey Wieber Boyd and Gwen Whiting. Like us, they were dissatisfied with the eco-friendly cleaning products on the market. As they put it, “Tired of buying inferior natural cleaning products or toxic cleaners that were not effective we decided it was time to make our own.”

Lindsey and Gwen were both educated in Fiber Science, Textile and Apparel Management and Design at Cornell University. The used their knowledge of fibers to create fabric-specific detergents that are gentle on clothes, but tough on dirt and stains. They have special detergents for denim, workout clothes, and delicates, among others.

The Laundress detergents are formulated from plant-based ingredients, and do not contain chlorine, petroleum products, or artificial color. They are triple-concentrated which means less packaging waste. You also use less product, which is better for your clothes and the environment, and ultimately saves you money.

We love their Signature Detergent for regular laundry, their Stain Solution for tough stains, and Wool & Cashmere Shampoo for our sweaters. (Yes, you can actually wash cashmere – and it comes out softer than from the dry cleaners!)

Their dusters, brushes, and cleaning cloths are made from natural materials – no plastic or petroleum products.

We are always looking for the best tools to make our necessary domestic chores more luxurious and above all – easier! This ostrich feather duster is what Redecker refers to as the “king of feather dusters”! It is so luxurious, we actually look forward to cleaning now.

Well, almost.

Fitted sheets are one of the most difficult items in our closet to fold. We can never seem to get them folded as neatly as the flat sheets!

Luckily, Pine Cone Hill’s Annie Selke created this video demonstration to help us out. Mystery solved!

Has this ever happened to you? You set a beautiful table for your dinner party. Your table linens are stunning, your dinnerware is bright and colorful, even your stemware and silverware sparkle. But when it’s time to serve the meal, you’re forced to choose between setting out plain, boring baking dishes or spending time transferring your entrees to fancy serving bowls. Then you have to wash BOTH.

That doesn’t sound like our idea of a fun evening, so we were thrilled to discover Skyros Designs. They create beautiful, functional bakeware pieces that are full of color and style.

With deep, rich colors and elegant details, this bakeware let you create, freeze, bake and serve, all in one dish. The matching dinnerware pieces are also microwave and dishwasher safe. These dishes are sturdy enough to withstand daily use, and beautiful enough to be on display in your kitchen.

Fewer dishes used means fewer dishes to wash. And that means more time for you to spend relaxing and enjoying the company of your guests.
