The set includes two white shakers, one cylindrical and one rectangular, both inspired by the geometric plaster models used in art classrooms for drawing studies. Seen from the back, they look like abstract ceramic forms; seen from the front, the three dispensing holes give each piece a small ghost-like expression. The name Obake, a Japanese word often used for a ghost or apparition, fits the playful character without turning the set into a novelty item.

One Night In Paris Tablecloth https://shop.gessato.com/one-night-in-paris-tablecloth/ https://shop.gessato.com/one-night-in-paris-tablecloth/#respond Tue, 02 Jun 2026 20:10:18 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=173463 The One Night In Paris Tablecloth by Art of Black is a cotton-linen tablecloth printed with a loose line-drawing arrangement of plates, cutlery, glasses, flowers, and table objects.

The design has the feeling of a sketched dinner setting, giving the table a more relaxed, illustrated look without needing a full tablescape. It works well for small dining tables, breakfast tables, coffee tables, consoles, kitchen counters, or layered over a larger table as a decorative cloth.

Made from a 50% cotton and 50% linen blend, the fabric has a natural texture with enough softness for everyday use. The neutral ground and black linework make it easy to pair with white tableware, wood furniture, stainless steel, glass, ceramics, and simple linen napkins.

Available in two sizes, the tablecloth can be used for dining, display, or casual styling around the home. It is machine washable, making it practical for regular use.

Mimmo – Dog Toy https://shop.gessato.com/mimmo-dog-toy/ https://shop.gessato.com/mimmo-dog-toy/#respond Tue, 12 May 2026 17:17:30 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=172514 Mimmo is a leaf-shaped dog toy by 2.8 Design for Dogs, the Italian pet design brand also known as Duepuntootto. Made from fabric remnants collected during the brand’s textile production, each toy gives leftover material a practical second use rather than sending it to waste.

The toy has a soft textile body and a plastic squeaker sewn inside. It is made for supervised indoor play, gentle fetch, and dogs who like textured fabric toys with sound. The shape keeps it easy to pick up, carry, and toss, while the textile surface gives each variation its own feel.

The Fig Leaf version is made from pistachio-colored bouclé wool, with a nubby texture that gives the toy more tactile interest. The Magnolia Leaf version is made from natural recycled wool, giving it a cleaner wool surface and a more neutral look.

Mimmo is handmade in Italy and works well as a small design gift for dog owners, especially when paired with a dog blanket, travel mat, or bed from the same brand. Like all soft dog toys, it should be checked regularly for wear. Do not leave a dog unattended during play, and remove the toy immediately if the stuffing comes out.

Mid-Century Starburst Coir Doormat https://shop.gessato.com/mid-century-starburst-coir-doormat/ https://shop.gessato.com/mid-century-starburst-coir-doormat/#respond Tue, 28 Apr 2026 13:35:42 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=171664 The Starshine Doormat gives the front door a bright graphic note from the first step. Its repeating starburst pattern has a clear mid-century modern feel: cheerful, geometric, and easy to live with. It works in a sunlit desert entry, a city townhouse, a winter cabin, or a simple modern porch — the pattern has enough personality to stand out, but it still feels clean and balanced.

Made with durable natural coir, the mat is designed to handle daily foot traffic while helping catch dirt before it gets inside. A sturdy rubberized underlayer adds grip and structure, making it practical as well as good-looking. Easy to clean with a shake, brush, or quick vacuum, the Starshine Doormat comes in four sizes to suit different entryways, from compact front doors to larger porches.

Mar-Ball Glass Candlestick with Marble Base https://shop.gessato.com/mar-ball-glass-candlestick-with-marble-base/ https://shop.gessato.com/mar-ball-glass-candlestick-with-marble-base/#respond Tue, 24 Mar 2026 00:43:18 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=167791 Mar-Ball is basically a candlestick turned into a little stack of shapes: a real marble base for weight, a glossy glass “ball” in the middle, and a fluted glass cup that holds a taper. It has that slightly retro, slightly postmodern Italian mood.

The best part is how quickly it changes a table. Even one looks good; two or three start to feel like a small centerpiece. Each version comes in one of three color combinations, mixing marble (light or dark) with bold glass tones—easy to match with modern interiors, and a genuinely good gift when you don’t want to bring yet another bottle.

Boya Carafe https://shop.gessato.com/boya-carafe/ https://shop.gessato.com/boya-carafe/#respond Thu, 12 Mar 2026 17:37:41 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=166061 Recycled glass carafe with a simple twist at the neck: that rounded “buoy” collar gives your hand a natural place to grip, and it makes the silhouette feel a little more considered than the average bottle-on-table situation. The glass is mouth-blown from 100% GRS-certified recycled glass, so each one has tiny variations that keep it from feeling factory-flat.

Boya comes in multiple colors (Blush, Mauve, Yellow, Clear with Bubbles, and Smoked Grey). Pair it with the matching Boya glasses—designed to stack on top—for a tidy little setup that stays out on the counter without looking like “hydration gear.” Dishwasher-safe.

Bubbles Celebration – La Collection (Set of 8 Champagne Flutes) https://shop.gessato.com/bubbles-celebration-la-collection-set-of-8-champagne-flutes/ https://shop.gessato.com/bubbles-celebration-la-collection-set-of-8-champagne-flutes/#respond Thu, 26 Feb 2026 07:41:23 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=164430 Eight mouth-blown Champagne flutes, each one softly tinted in its own hue and individually numbered—like a small edition you can actually use, not just admire from across the room. The form is part ceremony, part quiet mischief: a slim cone that keeps bubbles energetic and brings aromas right to the rim, perched on a spherical base that looks like a captured bubble waiting for the first pour.

The presentation is half the pleasure. The set arrives in a drawer-style box with two interior levels (four flutes per layer), laid out with that satisfying symmetry that makes you slow down for a second before you start handing them out. Designed by Baldwin & Guggisberg for L’Atelier du Vin, it’s made for people who notice glass the way they notice chairs: by silhouette, weight, and how it changes the mood of a table. Hand wash only, ideally with a soft cloth and a calm sink.

Sekiei Orin https://shop.gessato.com/sekiei-orin/ https://shop.gessato.com/sekiei-orin/#respond Sun, 11 Jan 2026 19:52:09 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=161504 Sekiei Orin has a discreet shape that finds its place almost anywhere. It doesn’t lean on style cues or decoration. It’s simply bell-like in a way that feels familiar, with a soft sense of elegance that comes from keeping the form essential. It’s a small companion that can live on a desk, a shelf, or a windowsill and feel at home in the room.

Under the clear glass dome sits the bell element, with a small striker placed alongside. Tap it and you get a single tone that stays present for a few seconds before fading. The glass cover changes the experience slightly, keeping the sound feeling contained and suited to indoor spaces—an office, a studio, a quiet corner at home. Made in Japan by Sekiei in Takaoka.

Sekiei Doorbell https://shop.gessato.com/sekiei-doorbell/ https://shop.gessato.com/sekiei-doorbell/#respond Sun, 11 Jan 2026 19:31:55 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=161494 The Sekiei Doorbell is a delicate door chime made from high-purity quartz glass, designed to produce a clear, lingering tone with very little force. The glass element is suspended from a slim metal arm, allowing it to move freely and resonate when struck by the small clapper.

Quartz glass is rarely used in everyday objects. It’s valued for its transparency, stability, and resistance to heat, and is more commonly found in scientific and industrial settings. Here, those same properties give the bell its character: the sound is light, precise, and slow to fade, carrying gently through a space rather than stopping abruptly.

Visually, the design is almost diagrammatic. The structure is minimal, the materials are exposed, and nothing feels hidden or decorative. Hung near an entryway, the Sekiei Doorbell signals arrival in a quiet, restrained way—more presence than announcement. Handmade in Japan.

Fish Splash Placemats – Set of 2 https://shop.gessato.com/fish-splash-placemats-set-of-2/ https://shop.gessato.com/fish-splash-placemats-set-of-2/#respond Mon, 05 Jan 2026 18:50:55 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=161219 Octaevo’s Fish Splash Placemats come as a set of two, shaped like stylized fish with a bold blue field and graphic linework. They sit somewhere between table linen and design object—clean enough for everyday use, playful enough to change the mood of the table immediately.

The material has a practical finish that wipes down easily, and the embroidery gives the edges a crisp definition. Use them as regular placemats, or treat them like small, flat centerpieces under a carafe, fruit bowl, or serving dish when you want a bit of color on the table.
