Eames Lounge Chair, c. 1956.
Molded rosewood plywood. Black leather upholstery. Aluminum base.

Though it may seem clichéd to post a picture of this chair – being that it’s one of the most iconic and recognized designs of all time – I don’t care. When L and I buy a house, this lounge chair will reside in my study, and I will recline on it while listening to dusty LP’s and formulating thoughts that may or may not be deep.

And in case you’re wondering, yes, it is quite comfortable.

Did I really need a new knife? Not really. Has it made my daily openings of boxes and packages more fun? Definitely. I picked up this Böker Keycom designed by Chad Los Banos in my favorite colorway last week, and it arrived in time for me to efficiently unpack our Flat Head, Sling & Stones and Rin Tanaka shipments today.

It’s a tiny knife – when closed, it measures just over 2″. It’s small enough to carry on your keychain, but I’ve opted to remove the ring and just clip it inside my coin pocket.

I can definitely see the value in investing in a higher-end knife somewhere down the line, but this little guy is sharp and gets the job done. It retails for just $27.50, but if you’re resourceful it can be found for less than $20.

Just looking at this chair makes me feel more relaxed.
