Gifts for Entertaining from Splendid Market

1
These Horn Spreading Knives are as useful as the are beautiful. They’ll add an elegant, rustic charm to any cheese tray. They come in a gift box, all ready to wrap. Zush, $35.00 set of 4.

2
Drinkybabies are wonderful vessels from which to sip cocktails or wine or you could fill them with nuts or chocolates for a cocktail party. Handblown, each one is unique. You can get all of one color or mix them up. Here is the mix that I have, the subtle differences make a beautiful display. Glassybaby, $55.00 each.

3
Ice Orb molds. I first enjoyed these giant round ice orbs at a restaurant in Japan, they used them in cocktails because they are slower to melt {and because they looked so cool}. When I returned home I found some molds and made dozens of them {over a matter of days} for a party, they looked incredible  in this cut crystal bowl. These molds are a little different from those I used, but I am sure the results will be equally impressive. Amazon, $9.99 each.

4
These lovely linen monogrammed tea towels will look superb in any powder room The recipient will be touched by the personalization. Enchanted Home, $20.00 for a set of 3.

5
My powder room isn’t ready to party unless I have Fico Verde soap and hand lotion on the sink. They leave your hands smelling like fresh fig leaves. Antica Farmacista, $25.00 each.

6
These handsome, rustic Cork Burl Bowls can be used for soups, salads or flower arrangements. They looked gorgeous loaded with fresh vegetables, anchovy dip and rosé wine, a la Club 55 in St. Tropez, when I gave them to a friend last summer. Bitters Co., $60., $100, or $200.

7
One of my favorite things to serve in the winter is raclette, melted cheese poured over potatoes and garnished with sour cherries, cornichons, grilled tomatoes and cured meats, click on Chablis to see the spread. Guests will love cooking their own dinner with this Raclette Grill. Casa, $97.00
