Stewart/Stand (CLOSED)

Though the store is named for owner Theo Stewart-Stand’s line of stainless steel wallets and bags, the stock here is actually dominated by fun and unexpected kitchen accessories and gift items. Wood counters wrap around the store and hold affordable treasures with a design bent, like wooden puzzle-piece serving boards ($46) and wine carafes with glasses that store neatly in the top ($28). But some items may be too good to give away as a housewarming present, including a set of brightly colored nesting bowls ($40) and adorable babooshka stackable measuring cups that resemble Russian matryoshka dolls ($13). Like the mod space, clean-lined goods such as hyperthin, private-label woven stainless-steel wallets ($15–$125) and interlocking diamond-shaped cuff links ($89), along with Josh Jakus felt bags ($65–$110) should please your crew of devoted design snobs and minimalists.
