Bonfort Classic Swiss Army Knife
Coated in 18-karat yellow gold and studded with 72 eye-popping diamonds, this version of the 3-inch Classic model packs a tiny pair of scissors, a file with screwdriver tip, and an engraved knife blade that would please a Medici prince.

Someone’s Cup by Esque Design
I don’t know how to take this cup. A mark of lipstick on my cup or someone else’s cup can go as a great prank, but it can also back fire when your real lady friend walks in and notices it.
your guests may do a double take with the lipstick mark that’s imprinted on ‘someone’s cup’. sold individually.
Whether you think this prank is worth 60 bucks is entirely up to you, but check out that and Esque Design’s other products at Unica Home.

The 2009 Bubble Calendar
I remember the good ol’ days (a few days ago actually when I got a shipment in) when I used to pop that bubble wrap to kill time. It’s quite amusing and a stress reliever, too.
This is a different type of bubble wrap. Set in Helvectica Neue font, the Bubble Calendar is full functional, as it allows you to “pop” the days as they go by. It has all the days of the week and all major holidays marked and weekends bolded for easy reference.
