Lisa Firer Collection: Fynbos Bud Vases: Anyone can buy flowers and slip them in a vase bought at the corner drugstore. Why not make the vase a statement piece the next time a birthday or anniversary rolls around? This delicately folded porcelain vase has fragile swirls of fynbos (small shrubs that grow in South Africa) and a customized shape for each product.

Wearable Slinky Necklace: Maybe you never envisioned wearing a slinky as a necklace. However, these high-fashion pieces are striking and fun. Choose from royal blue, white, red, orange, aqua, yellow, black, and silver — or collect them all for a rainbow of color that will match all your outfits. Or maybe you can give one to a friend you especially love.

Jelly Fish Chandelier: Despite the whimsical name, this special lighting fixture creates an elegant ambiance in the dining room or kitchen. It makes a great house-warming gift for siblings, children, or parents.
