TRIBECA WINE MERCHANTS

JUST SCANDINAVIAN
• For your Republican friends: a small tray with elephants on it ($45; other patterns, $36).

• Pretty glass bowls/candle holders; the large ones are $40, the small ones are $25, and I have no idea which size this is. Available in other colors.
• Josef Frank’s wonderful Manhattan pattern, now on plastic placemats ($20).
