Choosing a Gift That Stays

The most memorable holiday gifts are the ones that outlast the season. A coffee table book arrives wrapped and then finds its place: on a console, at the end of a sofa, in the stack that tells you something about the room and the person in it. Chosen well, it holds a city, a house, a championship season or a discipline followed for years, and it opens again in February and again the year after. That is what sets coffee table book gifts apart. They are not used up. They are kept.

Gifting Services for a Longer List

When the list runs long, Gifting Services handle the rest. Send to several recipients in a single order by uploading their addresses, or send the gift digitally and let each person add their own, which helps when you are giving across cities or working from an address you are no longer sure of. Gift wrapping and a canvas tote can be added at checkout, and shipping is complimentary above $200 per recipient. It is the simplest way to send a book to a client list, a team or a family spread across the map, with each one arriving as though it had been chosen for that person alone.

Objects for the Contemporary Library

Beyond the volumes, library objects bring the same attention to the surfaces around them, made to be handled, arranged and lived with. They are natural gifts for the host, for a friend in a new apartment, for the person whose shelves are already full. And for the name added late to the list, Gifting Services are on hand.
