THE CONSUMMATE COLLECTION<br />
Originally purposed as the ultimate kitchenware set,<br />
and an extraordinary gift, the Malle W. Trousseau is a collection<br />
of 43 of the best kitchen utensils from around the globe.<br />
Inspired by their daughter leaving home and needing her own kitchen<br />
items, French couple Isabelle Mathez and Frederic Winkler created the<br />
trousseau by selecting each item for its ‘unparalleled functionality, beauty,<br />
and quality’, with the utensils chosen having an integrity of purpose, and<br />
made by craftsmen with a genuine savoir-faire and love of their craft.<br />
5<br />
Organized by function into three trays <strong>–</strong> Cutting, Cooking, and<br />
Containing <strong>–</strong> the exquisite collection can be purchased as a complete<br />
trunk set (all three trays, boxed in a sturdy wooden-framed recycled<br />
cardboard ‘trousseau’) or as individual trays.<br />
6<br />
Given the popularity of these impeccably curated tools,<br />
Malle W. Trousseau have expanded their offering to include<br />
smaller collections of purpose-inspired utensils.<br />

Created in South Africa, Baobab handmade<br />
organic candles evoke the intense hues and<br />
perfumes of Tanzania’s African heartland.<br />
The refined fragrances were developed by<br />
a renowned perfumer in Grasse, France:<br />
predominantly green scents that float<br />
elegantly over woody base notes of<br />
cedar and sandalwood. With the highly<br />
collectible glass vessels from the<br />
meticulous work of expert craftspeople,<br />
Baobab has truly rekindled the flame<br />
of the desirable household candle.<br />
