Lacquered Chair I.I.

Price On Enquiry | Minjae Kim x Garcé & Dimofski Gallery

I’ve followed Minjae Kim’s work for a few years, and always come back to how raw and expressive his pieces feel. Beautiful and sculptural. He does these chairs in a variety of finishes, but I especially love this lacquered version.

Available at TheInvisibleCollection.com

Pale Nettles

£300 | Greg Becker

I love the stillness in Greg’s paintings. There’s a real sense of calm and nostalgia to them, and I like the intimate scale and colours in this piece.

Available at WonderingPeople.com

Ecru Stripe Cotton Two-Pocket Western Shirt

£275 | Drake's

One of our well-made shirts in a beautiful cloth. I love the simple Western detailing – great worn open with casual trousers or tucked into tailoring. It’s the sort of piece that only gets better with wear.

Available at Drakes.com

Italian Butterfly Floor Lamp

£2,819 | Afra & Tobia Scarpa

Available through my friend Gennaro Leone’s gallery, this is a lamp whose shape I have always loved. One of those design pieces that feels both sculptural and timeless, it adds so much atmosphere to a room without overpowering it. 

Available at Pamono.co.uk

Cambronne Glasses

Paname Lunetier

I wear glasses, so I’m always looking for frames with a bit of personality. I like that these feel playful and slightly eccentric.

Available at Paname-Lunetier.Fr

Herringbone Linen-Silk Blazer

£1,295 | Drake's

I love relaxed tailoring, and this blazer of ours is in a soft, lightweight linen-silk blend. Easy to throw on with bleached jeans or brown chinos, it works right through spring, summer and autumn.

Available at Drakes.com

A Four Piece Suite

£5,650 | Hans Gunther Reinstein x Spazio Leone

Another piece from Spazio Leone. I love the proportions and elegance of this set, and I would love this in my house.

Available at SpazioLeone.com

Lopez 75 Loafers

£2,150 | John Lobb

A classic that never really dates. I like things that feel understated but are made exceptionally well. I’m always looking for versatility in my pieces, and this is a shoe that works just as well casually as it does with tailoring.

Available at JohnLobb.com

Steam Eau De Parfum

£145 | Perfume H

This is a fragrance that just came out. I love the notes – seasonal and fresh, but timeless with a lot of personality. It already feels perennial.

Available at PerfumeH.com

Double Pleat Trousers

£473 | Stoffa

I saw these trousers (and matching jackets) in Stoffa’s New York store recently, and really liked the shape and cloth. They’re the sort of thing that gets better when slightly rumpled and worn in.

Available at Stoffa.co

Tank Louis Cartier Watch

£1,500 | Cartier

Now something that’s forever been on my wishlist. I’ve always loved the simplicity and proportions of the Tank. Elegant, understated and timeless, there’s always a place for this watch. I love old Piaget watches for similar reasons.

Available at Cartier.com

Camillo Silk Crewneck

€1,200 | Saman Amel

I love Saman Amel knits – they feel incredibly luxurious without being loud. This is exactly what I’d want to wear on a summer evening when the temperature drops a bit. Simple yet beautiful is hard to find because it’s hard to get right.

Available at SamanAmel.com

Black Tea Bowl

£1,200 | Tomoo Hamada

I pick up ceramics in every city I visit. I recently had the chance to spend some time with Tomoo and picked up a sake cup from him. I’m a big tea drinker, so I’ve been wanting a really beautiful handmade tea bowl from him for a while.

Available at KeikoUchida.com
