Vintage Cast Iron Bald Eagle Bookends, circa 1950s: This a pair of vintage cast iron eagle bookends from the 1950s. Thee bookends each feature a perched eagle with large tucked wings. The eagle motif in décor and folk art has widely been used throughout much of US history as an important symbol of strength, freedom, and wisdom. These bookends are sturdy enough to hold up to heavy books on a desk and would look fantastic in a study or office.

With seven cities to choose from- Manhattan, Tokyo, London, Paris, Washington DC, Denver, and Dallas- the journals are a long-lasting gift for the artist, writer, or adventurer in your life.

Leather Wrapped Glass Flask: We worked with Kentucky-based leather makers Clayton & Crume to design a custom Great Republic flask for our clients and collectors. The result is this beautiful flask, made of glass and wrapped in high quality leather. Distilleries have been bottling spirits in glass for decades, as it’s the only way to preserve the integrity of the spirit and avoid the tarnished taste that comes from cheap metal flasks. Our glass flask is finished with a solid brass cap and included brass funnel for a mess-free pour, every time. These make fantastic gifts!

Leather Messenger BagDesigned with a discerning eye, this Leather Messenger Bag offers no more than you need, and no less. No hinges, no hard corners, and no silly locking mechanism. Just premium, full-grain leather, robust stitching, and solid brass hardware for a lifetime of service, guaranteed. We love it for its sleek and subtle Horween Chromexcel shell, designated laptop pocketing, and heavy duty zipper. This bag is only available to shop at our Broadmoor location or by phone.

Hand Stitched Middleman Wallet: This Middleman wallet is a classic 5-pocket wallet. It has two horizontal card pockets on the front and back, and one large pocket in the center. All 5 pockets can hold up to 11 cards, as well as folded cash. The leather used on this wallet comes from Wickett & Craig, a 150+ year old Tannery based in the United States. The wallets are all cut and hand stitched, which is a lengthy process, but it makes the wallets more durable.

It is perfectly sized to fit all his travel accessories-- you'll be surprised how much it can hold.
