You have clocks all around you, so why do you need another one? Well, what if you could see a visual representation of the year? ThePresent is an annual analog clock; the hand completes one revolution every 365 days. Seeing the slow progression of a year might help put your hurried daily chores and duties into perspective. There’s also the TODAY: 24 Hour Clock, which moves at half the speed of a regular clock to shift your perspective of time each day.

These collar stays are the sort of thing a modern day MacGyver would have as it incorporates a half-phillips screwdriver, slotted screwdriver, thread cutter, and a bottle opener (no paperclip, though, sorry). Now, how often you’d need all of those functions, who knows, but some of them are bound to come in handy sooner or later. Like when you discover an errant thread on your way to an important meeting, or when you’re stuck in an elevator… with a few bottles of beer.

I know, I know, we all want to minimize kitchen clutter, but this spoon/spatula is meant for scooping, spreading, and scraping peanut butter. There’ll be little to no waste when you use the PBspoon, because it features both a rounded and square edge, which gets at every nook and cranny of those jars. And, of course, a flat backside helps you efficiently spread your spreads onto your favorite bread. Use it for butters, nut butters, jams or other condiments.

What says ‘grown-up glassware’ more than the $70 per piece price tag of the Dearborn Glassware? Maybe the intricate, fluted Borosilicate glass, or the knowledge that each piece was expertly created by master glassblowers in the Czech Republic. Borosilicate glass, if you didn’t know, gives thermal resistance, which translates into a durability appropriate for daily use- it’s safe to use in ovens, microwaves, and dishwashers- and that gives us all a little more understanding to the collection’s value (and, ultimately, the aforementioned price tag). Now on sale.

Material’s Fundamentals Set include their 8” Knife, The Almost 4” Knife, The Metal Spoon, The Wood Spoon, The Slotted Spatula, The Only Tongs, and The Base. They’re intended to be the quintessential tools that you’ll use every time you cook.
