Portugal is one of the world's major producers of cork, and with the decrease in cork usage for wine bottles, Portuguese designers are developing innovative ways to feature the material in their work. The chic Pelcor Designs (2009) Cork watch is my favorite piece from the collection. With a band made of ecological cork fabric and a modern face, the water-resistant watch ($75.00) is beach chic and summer party perfect.

They always have something gift-worthy there, don't they? I hadn't seen this line yet. I missed the store the Met used to have nearby. I always used to find great things there too.
hi barbara! the design is so unique and innovative. the price seems reasonable too. love the bag, the texture seems nice and soft. come to think of it cork has so many great functions, from designs, such as with shoes and as shown, to practical usage such as wine bottles, jar cover, pads, etc. i will check out the website later. you have a great day...verbena cottage
That ceramic bud vase is perfect to show off the beauty of a single stem - can't you see a number of them lined up on a mantle or down a long table?
