This week we’re revisiting some of our favorite all-time summer stories, like this one:
The theme of the summer? Cool, eco-minded, and effortless. In that spirit, here are the hot-weather essentials our editors are coveting:
Above: “I love classic striped deck chairs and have my eye on this modern Dutch version, the Beach Chair by Erik Stehmann and Raw Color from Weltevree,” reports Margot; it’s available for €198. Above: A beautifully woven fan like these Bolga Fans, handwoven in Ghana, is a summer essential; currently on sale for $99 from The Citizenry. Above: Fan says: “Come summertime, I usually have at least three kinds of berries in my fridge at any given time. I usually put the berries in a small glass prep bowl for my berry-mad son. Within 30 seconds of handing the bowl over to him, I’ll hear from the other room, “More, please!” I need a bigger vessel. And I’ve found the perfect one.” The Vermont Berry Colander from LA-based Sheldon Ceramics is seven inches in diameter and goes from sink to table; $80.
Above: For elevating outdoor dining of all kinds: a three-piece Camp Set, with a stainless steel knife, spoon, and fork in a simple carrying case; 2,200 JPY (or about $14 US). The knife doubles as a bottle opener. See also Monochrome Campware from a Japanese Maker.
Above: Better than paper: Annie likes the look of these Porcelain Paper Plates, which have all of the nostalgia of summers past and none of the waste. (Another thing they have going for them: They were designed exclusively for Erin French at The Lost Kitchen.) The plates are $28 each. Above: The ideal pool towel? The Roman Pool Towel from Baina, shown here in the “sage and chalk” colorway. Above: A vast upgrade from flimsy (and prone-to-cracking) plastic versions: retro Stainless Steel Ice Cube Trays by Onyx, $30 each from Food52. Above: Julie recently ordered a borosilicate glass drinking bottle for the summer months, with durable, lab-quality glass that doesn’t impart a taste to water (and is eco-friendly to boot). The Kablo Glass Water Bottle, designed in LA, is $40 from Kablo. Above: Hammocks are a summer must, and we like this hardy version, handwoven by artisans in Nicaragua. The Earth Organic Natural Cotton Hammock by Artissanos is $265 via Wolf & Badger.
N.B.: This story is an update; the original post ran on July 3, 2018, and is reappearing here with new picks as part of our Summer from the Archive issue.
