Being Real
Rocks
The offspring of his
previous Crystal Rock
pendant light series,
Arik Levy’s Crystal
Rock Raw collection
for glassmaker Lasvit
embraces the raw
and natural look of
real mineral.
Each pendant’s
perfectly cut yet
roughly sculpted
form refl ects and
defl ects light in
a spellbinding way.DIVERSIONS

Bring some sunshine and adventure to your child’s room with
children’s furniture maker Circu’s Bun Van Bed and its summer‑surf vibe.
Inspired by the Volkswagen Transporter, the iconic “hippie van” of the 1960s,
it comes with not just a bed, but also several storage compartments,
a TV, a desk, a minibar and a sofa.SUPREME SAKE
The Kono family’s mellow and elegant Sohomare sake
is brewed with the fi nest Yamada Nishiki rice using
the labour-intensive 17th-century kimoto method,
practised by only a handful of breweries nowadays as
it takes 15 days longer than modern brewing methods.
The best ways to enjoy it? “With caviar, raw oyster, uni,
chutoro, otoro, charcoal-grilled fi let steak or Comté
cheese,” says fi fth-generation owner Jun Kono.
