They say a man’s home is his castle.
Which makes many a man the king of Pottery Barn.
Take it up a notch with Crest and Co. — luxury goods fit for kings (quite literally), taking orders now.
At heart, Crest and Co. is a private shopping site* that curates high-end wares from around the globe.
But not ordinary high-end. Over half the brands here are centuries-old purveyors to honest-to-God royal families. From King George III up through the present royal familj of Sweden.
Even the non-royal stuff here has some amazing heritage, and is often exclusive to C&C.
Some faves:
-
Chief Trunk, striking striped luxury totes and duffels revived from U.S. heritage brand OshKosh
-
Lalique’s black lacquered cigar humidor
-
The master saddlers of Bole, crafting beautifully supple leather briefcases for the Swedish king (of note: their Nordic reindeer hides are hand-dyed for a year)
Plus: barware, games, tobacco accessories, watches and more.
Living like royalty has its price. Many of these goods aren’t inexpensive.
Call it the plight of the ruling class.
* Nota bene: Crest and Co. is usually invite only, but use the code “InsideHook” during the signup for instant access.
