If you can bring yourself to prise open the packaging — the natty pattern-adorned plywood crate comes with an accompanying mini brass crowbar — you’re going to be thrilled with the attentively considered contents of The Curated Hamper.
Putting the fun back into receiving mail since 2011 … delivering over 100,000 gifts via an exclusive online subscription service … it makes acute sense that Not-Another-Bill, whose vision is to ‘source, create and deliver presents that excite, inspire and delight’, would begin plying their trade in the christmas gift market.
Their five debut hampers do not disappoint. In Whisky Hamper, Splatterware Starter Kit, Marble & Brass Kitchen Hamper, Woodworkers Hamper — and the wildly eclectic Taxidermy Hamper — you can expect to uncover collaborations from the world’s oldest horn manufacturer; a marble chopping board cut from one solid block of arabescato; handmade woodworker’s tools from Sheffield; resin-cast bugs; and fine, single malt whisky from Mt Tenno, Japan. And not a brandy butter in sight.
