2024 Holiday Gift Guides: Our Favorite Stocking Stuffers

We've rounded up our favorite stocking stuffers and small gifts. Beautifully crafted leather goods, pocket flasks, sparkly jewelry, winter essentials, and more- these are the perfect gifts to surprise and delight on Christmas morning!

Dents Cashmere Lined Leather Gloves with Contrasting Detail

Dents has designed and manufactured fine leather gloves for over 237 years. The company was established by John Dent, master glove maker, in a small wooden house in Wood Street, Worcester, England, in the year 1777. Today, as in the past, the Dent gloves are made in the traditional manner. The leather is still selected, stretched, and bench cut by hand, one pair at a time, then lined and finely stitched, just as it always has been. Keep your loved ones stylishly warm this winter season!

Silver Plated Keepsake Box, Early 20th Century

A stunning silver plated keepsake box dating to 1900, with associated hallmarks along the side. This small box includes a divided interior with  storage of jewelry, cufflinks, and other keepsakes. A well maintained, elegant piece, this antique silver box is an excellent addition to any silver collection.

Patriotic Collection Double Sided Letter Opener

This stunning letter opener features a patriotic design, composed of blue lapis, red coral, and white mother of pearl. Its alternating stripes of white and red, alongside a blue field with a single inlaid mother-of-pearl star at center, is a beautiful interpretation of the American flag. The design is sleek and elegant, and an excellent way to pay tribute to our country. 

 

Handcrafted Leather Coasters

Made of thick, premium Horween full-grain leather, these handmade coaster sets offer many years of service on your table or bar, guaranteed. The coasters are proudly handcrafted in Louisville, Kentucky and come in eight different historic and patriotic designs.

Leather Wrapped Glass Flasks

We worked with Kentucky-based leather makers Clayton & Crume to design a custom Great Republic flask that will match the quality of the spirits it will carry. Distilleries have been bottling spirits in glass for decades – it’s the only way to preserve the integrity of the spirit and avoid the tarnished taste that comes from cheap metal flasks. The result is this beautiful flask, made of glass and wrapped in high quality, full grain saddle leather. This is the perfect way to sip your favorite spirits fireside amongst friends or to toast an epic day.  

Buffalo Nickel Cufflinks

These cufflinks are crafted from actual buffalo nickel coins. Buffalo nickel coins were struck by the United States Mint from 1913 to 1938. These antique coins have been intricately hand-cut with a jeweler's saw. Each pair has sterling silver cufflink findings soldered onto the buffalo nickel. The backings are strong, hinged findings that will not pull through your cuffs. They are the perfect unique gift for a stylish man to wear on his french cuff shirts. 

Antique Victorian Silver Book Link Collar

This stunning Victorian-era silver book link collar necklace dates to the 1880-1890s. A book link chain is a type of jewelry designed for lockets, cameos, chains, and necklaces. Each link of the chain is a rectangular folded piece of metal that resembles a book and is usually made of solid gold or sterling silver. This style allowed for intricate artistic details on each book link, like engraved filigrees and scrollwork. This particular necklace was found in London, England. The necklace measures 17.5 inches, and is fastened with a bolt ring clasp. 

 

Bald Eagle Holiday Ornament

Perfect for your holiday tree, this is our American-made Bald Eagle Ornament. This three dimensional ornament is made from cut brass with a brass lacquer finish. The ornament depicts a bald eagle clutching an American flag shield in its talons.  The ornament is made by Beacon Designs, the same company who produces annual ornaments for the White House. Their family-owned business started in 1976, and their products are made 100% in the USA.
